Chickens can have different types of feathers. Frizzled feathers curl toward a chicken’s head. Assume that feather type is determined by a single gene and that the allele for frizzled feathers is dominant over the allele for straight feathers. In a cross between two chickens with straight feathers, what percentage can be expected to have frizzled feathers?

• 0%

• 25%

• 50%

• 100%

• 1 BB: 2 Bb: 1 bb
