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.

If two black cats each carry a recessive gene for white fur, they could produce a kitten with white fur if both parents pass on their recessive gene. This would result in the kitten inheriting both recessive genes, which would override the dominant black fur gene.

Can two black people have a white baby?

No, it is not biologically possible for two black parents to have a white baby. Skin color is determined by genetics, and the combination of genes from black parents will not produce a child with white skin.


In cattle black coat is dominant to white coat color a farmer has a black male of undetermined genotype how can the farmer determine the genotype of the male?

One way to determine the male's genotype would be to breed him to females with a known genotype of Black-Black. If any resultant calves were born with a white coat, you would then know that the male were Black-White. If calves were consistently black coated, you could be fairly certain he was also of the Black-Black genotype.


Which is an example of codominance A. A person with blue eyes and a person with brown eyes mate and have a child with brown eyes. B. A sheep with white fur and a sheep with black fur mate and produce?

An example of codominance would be a cow with red hair and a cow with white hair reproducing and have a cow with both red and white hair.


A cross between a white rooster and a black hen is 100 percent blue offspring when two of these offspring are mated the probable phenotypic ratio seen in their off spring would be what?

If you crossed a black hen/roo with a white hen/roo, the offspring would NOT be blue. If he was recessive white, the chicks would be black. If he was dominant white, the chicks would be white with some black "smudges" or "spots". The only way to produce 100% blue chicks is to cross a black roo over splash hens or a splash rooster over black hens.


In certain rats black fur is dominant over white fur If two rats both heterozygous for fur color are mated their offspring would be expected to have?

The offspring would have a 3:1 ratio of black to white fur. This is because when both parents are heterozygous (Bb), they can produce offspring with a genotype of BB, Bb, or bb. The genotype BB and Bb will have black fur, while bb will have white fur.

Breed a tabby cat and a white cat what color will the kittens be?

They could be white, grey, white and grey, or many other things. It is all about genetics. There could be a recessive gene in there for dark fur, so you might end up with a black kitten, or some other random color. Most likely you will get a white, grey or mixed white and grey kitten.
