W = white and B = black
A)WW, BB
B)WB, BW

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since the male has both a white (W) and a black (B) fur-color gene and the female has only white fur-color genes (WW), the possible offspring combinations are WW (white from both parents) and BW (black from the father and white from the mother). The black and white genes are co-dominant, allowing for both colors to be expressed in the genotype.
