Answer:

The trait is inherited in the homozygous recessive pattern

Possible mating is between two heterozygous individuals

Explanation:

One possible explanation for this is that the trait for this brown mice has to inherited in the homozygous recessive condition. It is possible for this trait to skip two generations and then reappear if it has to be inherited in the homozygous recessive condition.

Another explanation to complement the first is that for this trait to reappear, there was mating between two heterozygous individuals (with one allele being domiant and the other being recessive). It is possible that all matings within the two skipped generations was between an heterozygous and a homozygous dominant or between two homozygous dominant individuals which will not produce the brown mice..

Which microscope did Anton van Leeuwenhoek use to observe single-celled organisms?
likoan [24]
<span>Anton van Leeuwenhoek learned to grind lenses ( 1668) and develop simple microscopes.

</span>

Leeuwenhoek heated the middle of a small soda glass rod , over a flame. On pulling apart the two ends, the glass rod elongated into thin whiskers . 
Heating the end of this whisker resulted in a tiny high quality glass sphere. These glass spheres then became the lens of his microscope, with the smallest sphere providing the greatest magnification.

Leeuwenhoek's designs were very basic. The body of the microscope was a single lens mounted in a tiny hole on a brass plate. The specimen was then mounted on a sharp point that sticks up in front of the lens. It's position and focus could be adjusted by turning the two screws.

The entire instrument was about 3 to 4 inches long and had to be held up close to the eye, requiring good lighting and great patience to use.
