In birds black feathers are dominant over brown feathers Two birds with black feathers were crossed They had an offspring with brown feathers How is this possible?

Both parents were heterozygous (Bb). The offspring would statistically be: BB, Bb, Bb, and bb. All but the bb offspring would be black and the bb would be brown.

A purebred chicken with white feathers is crossed with a purebred chicken that has black feathers. Each of their offspring has both black and white feathers. Why does this happen?
Both alleles for feather color are dominant.
A parent that is homozygous for a dominant trait is crossed with a parent that is homozygous for the recessive trait What percentage of the offspring will display the dominant trait?
100% of the offspring will display the dominant trait because the homozygous dominant parent can only pass on the dominant allele. The offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the dominant parent and one recessive allele from the recessive parent, resulting in a heterozygous genotype expressing the dominant trait.
A black erminette chicken is crossed with a white erminette chicken what color are the offspring?
The offspring are black feathered because the black feather gene is dominant
purple petal color in pea plants is dominant to white petal color two heterozygous pea plants are crossed what is the ratio of the offspring with white petals to the number total number of offspring?
3:1 ratio Two pea plants, both heterozygous for flower color, are crossed. The offspring will show the dominant purple coloration in a 3:1 ratio
Two true-breeding pea plants are crossed one with purple flowers and the other with white. Their offspring are?
If two true-breeding pea plants are crossed their offspring will show the dominant trait. The flowers will be purple or light purple.
