Question

Hi, I'm having some trouble with this practice problem from my study guide. If anyone can explain it it would be very helpful!

Brindle coloration is a black and brown striping pattern in some dogs. This fur coloration is controlled by different alleles at a single autosomal locus. There are three alleles, K^B, k^br and k^y. The K^B allele is dominant over the other two alleles and produces a solid black color. The allele k^br produces the brindle color pattern and is dominant over the k^y allele, which produces yellow fur. Give the genotypes of the parents and offspring in each cross.

P: black X yellow; F₁: ½ brindle and ½ black
P: black X brindle; F₁: ½ black, ¼ brindle and ¼ yellow
P: brindle X yellow; F₁: 100% brindle
