Answer:
The probability of getting a dwarf and pink female is 1/2
Explanation:
In mice, dwarfism is caused by an X-linked recessive allele, and pink coat is caused by an autosomal dominant allele where coats are normally brownish.
A dwarf female from a pure line will have Xd Xd where d represent the recessive trait and the female is also brownish (pp).
A pink male from a pure line will be XPY where P represent the dominant allele but not a dwarf (D).

The probability of getting a dwarf and pink female is 1/2
Answer:
Genotype of parents: Ss x ss
Genotype of offsprings: Ss ss
Expected ratio of short to long: 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
The actual ratio in this problem is Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair: 8 : 3
Explanation:
In cats the allele for short hair is dominant over the allele for long hair. (SS or Ss for short hair; ss for long hair).
A short haired male and long haired female have kittens. Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair.
For the parents to have been able to produce long haired offsprings, it means both parents possess one copy each of the recessive traits. Thus we have
Phenotype of parent: A short haired male and long haired female
Genotype of parents: Ss x ss
Genotype of offsprings: Ss ss
Expected ratio of short to long: 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
The actual ratio in this problem is Eight kittens have short hair and 3 have long hair: 8 : 3
Many kinds of prokaryotes and eukaryotes contain a structure outside the cell membrane called the cell wall. With only a few exceptions, all prokaryotes have thick, rigid cell walls that give them their shape. Among the eukaryotes, some protists, and all fungi and plants, have cell walls.
