    There are 50% of probabilities of getting roan cattle, WR

    Explanation:

    Available dа ta:

    W is the Allele for solid white coats R is the allele for solid red coats (R) WR expresses roan, coats containing both white and red hairs. The roan coat is an example of condominance

    1st Cross: Between cattle with solid white coats and cattle with solid red coats

    Parental) WW x RR

    Gametes) W W R R

    F1) 100% WR

    2nd Cross: Between two roan cattle

    Parental) WR x WR

    Gametes) W R W R

    Punnet Square) W R

    W WW WR

    R WR RR

    F2) Progeny genotype: 1/4 solid white-coated cattle, WW (25%)

    2/4=1/2 roan cattle, WR (50%)

    1/4 solid red-coated cattle, RR (25%)
