A female dinosaur with black scales and a male dinosaur with greenscales have 34 baby dinosaurs. In this F1 generation, there are 9female and 8 males that have black scales and there are 8 femaleand 9 males that have green scales.

What is the most likely genotype of the mother dinosaur?
a.X(B)X(B) b.X(B)X(b) c.X(b)X(b) d.X(B)Y e.X(b)Y

What genotype(s) will not be observed in the F2 generation fromcrosses between F1 females with black scales and F1 males withgreen scales?

a.X(B)X(B) and X(B)Y
b. X(b)X(b)
c. X(B)Y
d. X(B)X(B)
e. X(B)X(B) and X(B)Y
f. X(b)Y
g. X(B)X(b)
