In cattle, black coat color is dominant to white coat color. A farmer has a black male of undetermined genotype. How can the farmer determine the genotype of this black male?
Would the answer be that the farmer could have the black male mate with a white female or???
Thanks,
Bob

Recently, scientists discovered that a rare disorder called polkadotisim is caused by a bacterial strain, polkadotiae. Mice injected with this strain(p) develop polkadots on their skin. Heat-killed p bacteria and live D bacteria, a nonvirulent strain, do not produce polkadots, when separately injected into mice. However whe a mixture of heat-killed p cells and live d cells are intected together the mice developed polkadots. What process explains this result? Describe what is happening in the case of this outcome?

Check out user Jakluk4 (I genuinely enjoy most of the content on her channel, so don’t harrass her, troll her, or be verbally abusive to her): A defense of the following: genetics research, genetic engineering, gene therapy, and genetically modified food, all of which are relatively the same in principle, though slightly differing in practice. This will be sort of a response to Jak…
