Grade 9 DNA, RNA, and Genetics

In mice with black agouti coats, each hair is black and yellow. Two mice with black agouti coats are crossed. Among the offspring, most of the mice have black agouti coats, and the rest of the mice have non-agouti coats with solid black hairs. Based on the results of the cross, which statement describes the most likely genetics of coat color in the mice?
  1. The black agouti allele is dominant.
  2. The black agouti allele is recessive.
  3. The black agouti allele is sex linked.
  4. The black agouti and the black non-agouti alleles are codominant.
