A woman with type A blood is claiming that a man with type AB blood is the father of her child who is type B. Show all the possible crosses; remember that the woman can have AA or AO genotypes. Could this man be the father of the child? How? Assuming that he is the father, what must the mother’s genotype be?

Show me how you figure out the crosses (Show work) Words mean nothing if I can't understand what this problem is trying to tell me.

Simple Dominance with 2 genes A gene in cats causes them to be black (dominant) or brown (recessive). A second gene causes cats to be agouti (have stripes on their hairs) or non-agouti (solid colored hairs). If you did a dihybrid cross between two black haired agouti cats, what fraction of the offspring would be expected to have each phenotype? If a dihybrid black agouti cat mated with a brown cat that was heterozygous for the agouti gene, what fraction...
