Answer the lab question, “What is the effect of the inheritance of one trait on the inheritance of a second trait?” with a hypothesis. Remember that you can either assume that the two genes are independent or that they are linked. What results would you expect in either case? Hypothesis:

if a mouse inherits a particular form of one trait, then the inheritance of the other trait will not be affected because alleles assort independently.

Explanation:

sample hypothesis on edg 2021

my asnwer:
