Actually, the genes for the color of human skin are not as simple as say, a black or white coat in some animal. The dominance/ recessiveness is different in that example. Humans are not just black or white, but rather different "shades" depending on their genetics. So, in usual cases, a baby with a black parent and a white parent would have a skin tone intermediate of their parents' skin tones. I haven't researched or heard of any mutations that may exist that may cause a baby of such parents to be born white.

Yes. All it takes is a small amount of Black-African ancestry to be Black. Black genes are dominant and that is why the saying "1 drop" is common. A person who is 3/4ths White will often still look Black, however someone who is 3/4ths black and 1/4th White will often look 100% African.

homo=same so... use a Punnet square the alleles are, say that black is dominant over white w w B Bw Bw B Bw Bw The cat will be black. If the opposite is true (white is dominant, black is recessive), then the cat will be white. If the genes are co-dominant, then the cat will be gray.

Does Negroid sperm dominate Caucasian sperm?
Of course it does. Caucasian sperm does not have pigmentation. If a white male is with a black female, they will have a black child. If a black male is with a white female, they will have a black child. If the child of mixed race has a child, it will also be black. Therefore, the black sperm is dominate.Another answer:Black sperm is not dominant, and that is a racist notion to say it is. Yes, the genes for dark skin might be dominant in expression, but that doesn't make it any better. As far as the underlying genetics go, there would be an equal amount of both. Unless a biracial person is racist, they will adopt the culture of both parents equally and support both sides equally. Being racist the other way never makes up for past racism.
Why did your white mice have gray babies?
