Question

In smurfs, tall (T) is dominant to dwarf (t), blue (B) isdominant to pink (b) and happy (H) is dominant to sad (h). Tall,pink, sad females were mated to dwarf, blue, happy males. Theprogeny generation consisted of 36 tall blue happy and 41 tall pinkhappy. Fill in the spaces with the genotypes of the parents. Besure to write your genotypes with the genes in the order height,then color, then mood and do not put any spaces between genes sothat your answer can be scored correctly.
The genotype of the female parent in this cross is .
The genotype of the male parent in this cross is .
The answer that I came out with was Tt BBHH for male andTTbbhH for female....I don't think they are right though....PleaseHelp :/   Thank you!

Explanation / Answer

Female Parent Since it is tall, pink, and sad its genotype has to be T?bbhh Male Parent Since it is dwarf, blue, and happy its genotype has to bettB?H? All the progeny is tall so the only way this could happen is if thefemale is TT (homozygous dominant) Some of the progeny is blue and some is pink so the male has to beBb (heterozygous) All the progeny is happy so the male must be HH (homozygousdominant) Therefore those are the only genotypes that match. Female: TTbbhh Male: ttBbHH
