For this question, we will consider the adaptive transition from dark to light coat coloration that accompanied the movement of mice from the forest to the beach among two species of mouse. The ancestral species was darkly colored while the derived species was more lightly colored, consistent with the selective pressures that come when you are a dark mouse living on lightly colored sand. The phenotypes of the two parental species, along with arepresentative F1 individual and representatives from the F2 generation are shown below. Derived Ancestral 2.1 (10) Assume that you only had the data shown above for the parental lines (ancestral and derived species and the F1. What inferences would you make about the mode of inheritance for the overall (whole body coat color? Support your inferences clearly ldo not just write the mode of inheritance, explain why you arrived at that answer]. 2.2 (100 With the added data from the F2, what inferences might you make about the mode of inheritance for the overall (whole body) coat color? Support your inferences clearly Ido not just write the mode of inheritance, explain why you arrived at that answer Researchers performed genetic mapping experiments to locate genes involved in the determination of pigmentation and found two loci MCIR chromosome 10, and AGOUTI (chromosome that both affect pigmentation. Each of these loci have two alleles, one associated with light coloration (the L allele) and one associated with the dark coloration (the Dallele). When the researchers analyzed the effect of the al Screenshot Added these two loci on cheek coloration, the following results were obtained.

Explanation / Answer

For all the questions the mode of inheritance with will Epistatic inheritance / Epistatic Interaction where the expression of one gene masks the expression of the other gene.The interaction between genes is antagonistic.

At least five major genes interact to determine the coat color of mice: the genes are A, B, C, D, and S

In 2.4 question, the gene and putative causal mutations undergo a recessive colour pattern phenotype
