The inheritance pattern for white coloring is due to the existence of MULTIPLE alleles for the gene for coat coloring. It leads to the expression of different phenotypes.

<h3>Multiple alleles and inheritance</h3>

An allele is a gene variant for a given gene <em>locus</em>, diploid organisms inherit one allele from the mother and another from the father.

An individual is homo-zygous when both alleles for a given <em>locus </em>are the same, whereas an individual is heterozygous when both alleles for a given <em>locus </em>are different.

The combination of multiple alleles in a given <em>locus </em>may lead to the expression of different phenotypes.

The Hawaiian Islands are home to many endangered species. Why do you think the Hawaii Department of Agriculture is so strict abo
PtichkaEL [24]

The correct answer is C. It is so strict because a foreign species could compete with a native species and drive it to extinction.

The Hawaiian islands are one of the geographical isolated islands which faces the problem of the invasive species affecting the biodiversity of the island negatively.

The foreign species is equipped better to survive in the Hawaiian habitat and competes with the native species for the resources and food. The interaction and competition of the foreign species in the Hawaiian environment and habitat limits the resources for native species which increases the chance of the native species getting endangered.

The Hawaii Invasive Species Council along with other bodies such as department of agriculture, department of business and economic development, private and other government and non-government bodies have taken initiatives towards eradication of invasive species by strict laws.
