How rabbits can have more than two different coat colors?
Acutally it doesnt skip a generation. it has to do with the type of traits it can inherit. if you know what punnet squares are then you should know why. there are dommant traits from the male and there are ressive traits manly from the female. so if it was fur on a punnet square it would be its kind of similar to dogs if 2 pure breeds mate then you will get pure bred pups. if one has 1 ressive trait then its possible to get a crossbred.

List one benefit and one risk of imbreeding?
The benefit is also the draw back: Inbreeding, in say, dogs, allows for easier tracing of traits you wish to reinforce (such as intelligence or temperament). Unfortunately, reinforcing some good traits also reinforces bad traits (hip dysplasia or liver disease), making them more likely to show up, which will require further breeding to limit/remove the bad traits.

Does Darwin explain how earth came into existence?
No. Darwin's work was in biology - he studied animals and the way animals inherit traits from their parents. He came up with the idea that animals evolve in nature in a similar way to the way human dog breeders make new breeds of of dog: humans do it by selecting particular dogs that look the way they want, to be parents. Nature does it by being a dangerous place, with lots of different types of environments, so that animals with useful traits are more likely to live long enough to have babies, or to have more babies than animals which aren't as well-suited to the particular environment they find themselves in.
