In the same mouse species, a fourth unlinked gene (gene P/p) alsoaffects fur color.
For mice that are either homozygous dominant (PP) or heterozygous(Pp), the organismâs fur color is dictated by the other three genes(A/a, B/b, and C/c).
For mice that are homozygous recessive (pp), large patches of theorganismâs fur are white. This condition is calledpiebaldism.

In a cross between two mice that are heterozygous for agouti,black, color, and piebaldism, what is the probability thatoffspring will have solid black fur along with large patches ofwhite fur?
