Question

1. in a group of dachshund dogs, some individuals have rough fur and others have soft fur. in this group, the gene for the fur texture trait has two alleles. the allele for rough fur (f) is dominant over the allele for soft fur (f).
2. ranger is a dachshund dog from this group. ranger has the homozygous genotype ff for the fur texture gene.
3. based on this information, what is rangers phenotype for the fur texture trait?
4. soft fur rough fur

Explanation:

The allele for rough fur (F) is dominant, meaning any genotype containing at least one F will express the rough fur phenotype. Ranger has a homozygous FF genotype, which includes the dominant F allele.

Answer:

rough fur
