AMOERA SISTERS: VIDEO RICAP Amoeba Sisters Video Recap: Monohybrid Crosses (Mendelian Inheritance) Vocabulary practice! Fill in missing boxes assuming that having hair for guinea pigs follows Mendelian inheritance, where the mathrm(H) dominant allele codes for hair and mathrm(h) codes for a lack of hair (haifess).

# ExplanationTo fill in the missing boxes, we need to understand Mendelian inheritance and the terms genotype, phenotype, heterozygous, and homozygous.- **Genotype** refers to the genetic makeup of an organism; in this case, the combination of alleles that determine whether a guinea pig has hair or is hairless.- **Phenotype** is the observable trait, which in this case is whether the guinea pig has hair or is hairless.- An organism is **heterozygous** if it has two different alleles for a trait (e.g., ).- An organism is **homozygous** if it has two identical alleles for a trait (e.g., or ).Given that the dominant allele codes for hair and the recessive allele codes for a lack of hair, we can deduce the following:1. A guinea pig with a homozygous dominant genotype ( ) will have hair.2. A guinea pig with a heterozygous genotype ( ) will also have hair because the presence of one dominant allele is enough to express the trait.3. A guinea pig must have a homozygous recessive genotype ( ) to be hairless, as it lacks the dominant allele.Now, let's fill in the missing boxes:1. The first box under "Homozygous or Heterozygous?" should indicate whether the guinea pig with the unknown genotype has two identical alleles (homozygous) or two different alleles (heterozygous). Since we don't have the genotype, we cannot fill this in without additional information.2. The second box under "Phenotype" should describe the observable trait based on the genotype. If the genotype contains at least one allele, the phenotype is "Hair"; if the genotype is , the phenotype is "Hairless."3. The third box under "Genotype" should be because the phenotype is "Hairless," which only occurs in the homozygous recessive condition.4. The fourth box under "Homozygous or Heterozygous?" should be "Homozygous" because the genotype has two identical alleles.5. The fifth box under "Image" should show a guinea pig with hair since the genotype will be heterozygous ( ) and still express the dominant trait.6. The sixth box under "Genotype" should be because it is stated that the guinea pig is heterozygous and has hair.7. The seventh box under "Phenotype" should be "Hair" because a heterozygous genotype ( ) will express the dominant trait.# Answer\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|}\hline\ Image\ &\ Genotype\ &\ \begin{array}{c}Heterozygous\ or\ \\Homozygous?\end{array} & Phenotype \\\hline & or & 1.
