one...but at a time there are maximum upto 2 alternative
forms can be present in an individual at homologus loci

In horses, B = black, b = brown, T = trotter, t = pacer. A black pacer mated to a brown trotter produces a black trotter offspring year after year. What are the probable genotypes?

In snapdragons tallness (T) is dominant to dwarfness (t). Red flowers are produced by RR and white flowers by rr but the heterozygous Rr is pink. A dwarf red snapdragon is crossed to a homozygous tall plant with white flowers. What is the phenotypic ratio of the F1? the F2?
In hogs a gene that produces a white belt around the animal's body is dominant over its allele for a uniform body. Another independent dominant gene produces fusion of the hoof (syndactyly). Suppose a uniformly colored hog homozygous for syndactyly is mated with a normal footed hog homozygous for the belted character. What would be the phenotype of the F1? If the F1's interbreed, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F2?

The dominant gene (G) produces green hair in mermaids and the recessive gene (g) produces blue hair. Webbed fingers are due to the dominant gene (F) and normal fingers are recessive (f). A mermaid who was heterozygous for hair color and who had normal fingers had a father with blue hair and webbed fingers and a mother with green hair and webbed fingers. What are the genotypes of all individuals (as completely as possible)?
A number of plant species have a recessive allele for albinism; homozygous albino (white) individuals are unable to synthesize chlorophyll. If a tobacco plant heterozygous for albinism is allowed to self-pollinate and 500 seeds germinate: a)how many offspring will be the same genotype as the parent? b)how many seedlings would you expect to be white?
