15. in horses, three coat-color patterns are termed cremello (beige), chestnut (brown), and palomino (golden with light mane and tail). if two palomino horses are mated, they produce about 1/4 cremello, 1/4 chestnut, and 1/2 palomino offspring. in contrast, cremello horses and chestnut horses breed true. (in other words, two cremello horses will produce only cremello offspring and two chestnut horses will produce only chestnut offspring.) explain this pattern of inheritance.

To know what happens here, we need to see how alleles work.

You have three species: cremello, chestnut, and palomino all will be homozygotes with two alleles each.  

One of these will be recessive (aa), one will be dominant (AA), and one will be a mixture (Aa).

You know the offsprin, so Cremello and Chestnut are the recessive and dominant ones. If you draw the Punnett square, you'll find out all breeding are pure.

Now, if you draw de Palomino Punnett square having one recessive allele and one dominant allele from each paren, you'll found 1/4 cremello (aa), 1/4 chestnut (AA) and 1/2 palomino (Aa).

during the process of dna replication, brdu can replace thymidine and incorporate into the newly synthesized dna, cell proliferation thus can be reflected in the extent of brdu incorporation.
