The planets closest to the Sun are the inner, or terrestrial, planets and are similar to Earth in some ways. They are rocky and
dense, have few moons, no rings, and are relatively small. These planets also differ in many ways, as shown in the chart. For example, Venus is the hottest planet on the chart, even though Mercury is closer to the Sun. The temperature difference between Venus and Earth is significantly greater than the difference between Venus and Mercury, even though Venus lies close to midway between those two planets. Which statement elaborates on the cause of this wide range of temperatures between terrestrial planets?

Answer: The genotype ratio is 2Ff : 2ff
The phenotype ratio is two normal feathered birds to two silky feathered birds.
Explanation: Let F represent the gene for normal feather and f represent the gene for silky feather. F is dominant while f is recessive, therefore a male that is hybrid for trait of normal feather is heterozygous and will have a genotype of Ff, a female that is homozygous for silky feather will have a genotype of ff.
A cross between Ff and ff will yield 2Ff birds and 2ff birds. Since F is dominant, a bird having genotype of Ff will manifest outwardly as blue feathered birds while ff will manifest outwardly as silky feathered birds because f is recessive and must occur in a homozygous condition in order to manifest phenotypically. Therefore, the genotype ratio is 2Ff: 2ff.
