Because in heterozygotes, both alleles are transcribed and translated.

An anomaly in the expected normal proportions is known as a deviation. This could involve a discrepancy in the distribution or occurrence rates of certain elements, such as in statistical data or within a population. Identifying and understanding these deviations helps to pinpoint areas of interest for further investigation or analysis.
Half of the offspring, or 100 rabbits, would be expected to be white when offspring from a heterozygous brown rabbit and a white rabbit are produced. This is due to the dominant-recessive inheritance pattern where brown is dominant and white is recessive.

Members of the same species can breed and produce viable offspring that will, when mated with others of the same species, also produce viable offspring.
The number of observed offspring in a genetic cross can be determined by conducting controlled breeding experiments, where specific parental genotypes are crossed. The resulting offspring are then counted and recorded, typically using a Punnett square to predict expected ratios based on Mendelian inheritance. By comparing the actual number of offspring to the expected ratios, researchers can analyze inheritance patterns and gene interactions. This process helps in understanding the genetic makeup and traits of the offspring.
50% of the offspring are expected to have the TTYy allele combination. This is because the TY and Ty alleles segregate independently during meiosis, resulting in a 1:1 ratio of TY:Ty alleles in the gametes that combine during fertilization.
When traits do not appear according to the expected ratio in offspring, it could be due to genetic linkage, incomplete dominance, codominance, polygenic inheritance, epistasis, environmental factors, or genetic mutations. Additionally, errors during meiosis, such as non-disjunction or crossing over, can also lead to unexpected ratios of traits in offspring.
