Question

Case Study The Selkirk Rex cat is a breed known for its curly hair. The allele responsible for this curly hair exhibits incomplete dominance. Two copies of the allele yields very curly hair, a slender body, and large ears. One copy of the allele yields a more sturdy body, wavy hair, and smaller ears. Cats with one copy are preferred for professional cat shows. A man from Argentina recently inherited two sister Selkirk Rex cats from a relative and is interested in breeding them to produce more curly-haired cats. One cat carries two copies of the Selkirk allele. The other Selkirk Rex cat carries one Selkirk allele. What genotypes should he seek in mating partners for his cats to produce the most heterozygous kittens possible in the next generation? Note: he doesn't want any kittens that do not have wavy or curly hair. What genotypes should the breeder choose for mates for his Selkirk cats? Choose the beſt answer from the choices below to maximize the number of heterozygous kittens AND maintain the mutation in the population for future breeding. For the SS cat, he should choose Ss. For the Ss cat, he should choose 55. For the SS cat, he should choose ss. For the Ss cat, he should choose Ss. For the SS cat, he should choose 55. For the Ss cat, he should choose Ss. For the SS cat, he should choose ss. For the Ss cat, he should choose SS.​
