Are cat curly ears dominant or recessive trait?
Dark hair (black or brown) are considered to be dominant genetic traits over lighter colors like blonde and red. This is a very simplified perspective of the genetics of hair color. Hair color is coded by multiple genes, so this is slightly more complex in reality.
How do dominant and recessive alleles affect pheno type?
An allele can effect the phenotype of an organism by its dominance or recessiveness. If two dominant alleles are crossed the offsprings will carry the dominant trait of the alleles. If a dominant allele is crossed with recessive allele the phenotype of the offsprings will be of that of the dominant allele. And if two recessive alleles are crossed the phenotype of their offsprings will carry the reccesive trait.
What is a heterozygous recessive?
Homogeneous recessive is two like genes that express a recessive trait.
How could two black cats produce a kitten that has white fur?
It may be that in the litter that one of the cats came from the mother or father was a white cat ( that would be a recessive gene) and it reoccured in this generation. Just because it's a recessive gene doesn't mean it can't come back.
In a certain cat long whiskers (W) are dominant and short whiskers (w) are recessive. Two cats have genotypes Ww and ww. If they have an offspring with short whiskers what is the genotype of their off?

What is dominant in cats if bobtails are recessive?
If bobtails are recessive in cats, then the normal tail trait would be considered dominant. This means that a cat with at least one normal tail allele will display the normal tail phenotype, while only cats with two recessive bobtail alleles will exhibit the bobtail phenotype. In genetic terms, dominant traits mask the expression of recessive traits when both are present.
Why do LaPerm cats have curly fur?
The LaPerm cats have a dominant gene that make them have curly hair.
How do dominant and recessive alleles affect pheno type?

And if two recessive alleles are crossed the phenotype of their offsprings will carry the reccesive trait.
What is the mutation called of Manx cats?
The dominant trait of taillessness is called the Manx taillessness gene.
Suppose that the allel for blue yes in cats is recessive and your cat has blue eyes?
If your cat has blue eyes and the allele for blue eyes is recessive, it means that your cat must have two copies of the blue eye allele. Consequently, your cat's genotype is homozygous recessive for the blue eye trait. This also indicates that the cat's parents must have carried at least one copy of the recessive allele, allowing the trait to be expressed in your cat.

Suppose that the alleles for blue eyes in cats is recessive and your cat has blue eyes. what statement can you make about your cat's genotype for eye color?
A+ It is probably homozygous for the recessive allele.
Do russian blue cats have curly hair?
No, they don't.
