An 11-year-old male was having difficulty reading the graphs that his teacher was showing at the front of classroom. His teacher recommended he be seen by an ophthalmologist. Not only was he asked to look at a Snellen letter chart for visual acuity but he was also asked to identify numbers in an Ishihara chart. He responded that he merely saw a bunch of dots. Abnormal color vision is 20 times more  common in men than women because most cases are caused by an abnormal

In watermelons, bitter fruit (B) is dominant over sweet fruit (b), and yellow spots (S) are dominant over no spots (s). The genes for these two characteristics assort independently. A homozygous plant that has bitter fruit and yellow spots is crossed with a homozygous plant that has sweet fruit and no spots. If an F1 plant is backcrossed with the bitter, yellow spotted parent, what phenotypes and proportions are expected in the offspring?

Short hair in rabbits (S) is dominant over long hair (s). The following crosses are carried out, producing the progeny shown.

A. short X short = Progeny ( 3 short and 1 long)

B- short  X long = Progeny  (1 short and 1 long )

What is possible genotypes of the parents of  cross A and cross B respectively
