In a newly discovered diploid animal species, tail length is determined solely by 3 additive gene loci that can have the allele
s, which contributes 4mm, and the allele
l, which contributes 15mm. Two lines with the genotypes A

s are mated to create the F1 generation.
a. | What is the predicted genotype and phenotype of the F1 progeny? |
b. | If two individuals from the F1 generation are crossed, each phenotypic category will occur in |
what proportion?
