In some goats, the presence of horns is produced by an autosomal gene that is dominant in males and recessive in females. A horned female is crossed with a hornless male. The F1 offspring are intercrossed to produce the F2. What proportion of the F2 offspring will have horns?

BLAST uses heuristics to align a query sequence with all sequences in a database. 

Reason(R): BLASTX uses protein sequences as queries to search against a protein sequence database.
