A populations of scale insects exhibited superior survival when transplanted within, rather than between, ponderosa pine trees. Variation in antiherbivore defenses among individual ponderosa pines thus appears to be paralleled by variation in genotypes of the scale insects that infest them. If this is the case, then the experiment demonstrates __________.

Genes that control coat color in mammals represent some of the best early examples of genes with multiple alleles exhibiting different phenotypes. A classic example is the C gene in hamsters. Three of the known alleles of this gene are C, c^a and c^k. Each supplies a different amount of black pigment to the coat hair. The phenotypes of three different homozygous strains are as follows.

Based on the concepts of recessivity, determine whether ck and ca were dominant or recessive alleles by crossing the true-breeding albino hamsters  with the true-breeding sepia hamsters. From the resulting F1 progeny phenotype, what would be the ratio of F2 phenotype
