In rabbits B is an allele for black coat and b is an allele for brown coat so what the genotypes for a rabbit that is homozygous for black coat and another that is heterozygous for black coat?

Black coat homozygous: BB
Black Coat heterozgous: Bb

∙ 14y agoThe second rabbit can't be heterozygous for a black coat, because the brown coat is dominant. Bb would be a heterozygous trait, but that rabbit would have a brown coat.

What ecosystem are rabbits in?
most rabbits live in woods in North America, jack rabbits live in deserts.
What type of selection causes evolution?
Whatever physical attributes are most useful in the current environment. For instance if there was a group of rabbits, the fastest would avoid predators best, if it then mated with another fast rabbit the baby rabbits would all grow up to be faster.
What is true concerning coexistence between two species of organism?
They may use different resources. Even if one species feeds on another, so long as they don't exhaust their food supply, both species can coexist. Ticks and rabbits coexist, even though ticks feed on rabbit blood. Rabbits and coyotes coexist, even though coyotes feed on rabbits.
How does coevolution differ from evolution?
It doesn't. Co-evolution is simply a special case of evolution in which two or more species affect the direction of one another's evolution. The classic example is predator/prey interaction. All rabbits are variants and all fast rabbits vary among themselves also, with the faster ones surviving to reproduce ever faster rabbits. ( within physical limits and incrementally; think of how humans have shaved time off the mile run in the last 50 years ) This drives the evolution of faster, within limits, predators to chase these rabbits. Thus you get a arms race of coevolution in two interacting organisms.
Are jack rabbits dangerous?
yes
What would be the results from a cross between a female rabbit with genotype Cc and a male rabbit with the genotype cc create a Punnet square showing this cross?
50% of the rabbits will be cc and 50% of the rabbits will be Cc. The punnet square is simple because one rabbit is homozygous recessive and the other is heterozygous. The genotype is then defined by the heterozygous (Cc) rabbit.
Out of 200 offspring of heterozygous brown rabbits and white rabbits how many white rabbits would be expected?
36
Is it possible for two heterozygous black rabbits to have 20 bunnies that are all white?
B = blackb = whiteBb x Bb. make the punnett square. Being heterzygous, they would never have 20 white rabbits. a few at the most.
Why does natural selection act directly on genes?
Selection acts directly on phenotype...expressed traits that decrease an individual's chances of surviving to reproductive age. Many alleles are rare enough that expression is almost nil so the trait remains hidden in the population generation after generation at the same frequency. Domestic descendants of wild rabbits are a panoply of colors, all part of the gene pool where those colors were latent...or quickly eaten. Dominant alleles are directly affected by natural selection only because phenotype and both the homozygous and heterozygous genotypes are the same meaning if they were a non-viable mutation they would potentially be 100 selected against in a very few generations.
Are rabbits weird?
No,Rabbits aren't weird their just another type of animal. :)
Are rabbits reptiles?
