Question

in animals, shaggy fur is dominant to short fur. the punnett square shows the genotypes of the offspring of a shaggy fur animal and a short fur animal. what were the genotypes of the parents? ff ff ff ff ff and ff ff and ff ff and ff ff and ff

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze offspring genotypes

Offspring genotypes: 2×$Ff$, 2×$ff$ (ratio 1:1)

Step2: Match to parental crosses

A cross of $Ff$ (shaggy) and $ff$ (short) produces:

$$\begin{array}{c|cc} & F & f \\ \hline f & Ff & ff \\ f & Ff & ff \\ \end{array}$$

This matches the given Punnett square.

Answer:

Ff and ff
