Answer:
The genotypes of the offspring will be RR and Rr in the ratio of 1:1.
The phenotypes of the offspring will be all rough coats.
Explanation:
Genotypes refer to the allelic constituents of the genetic build-up in an organism. Phenotypes refer to the visible characters morphologically of an organism.
The cross is provided in the picture.
Results - 2 RR genotypes and 2 Rr genotypes are seen.
Thus, the genotypes are RR and Rr with a ratio of 1:1.
Since R is for rough coats, the phenotypes of all the offspring are rough coats.
