Three tigers have different parents. They all have the same proteins for stripe pattern in their cells. What can you say about the tigers' stripe patterns?

• They will have the same stripe patterns since all tigers have the same stripe patterns.

• They will have the same stripe patterns since their proteins for stripe pattern are the same so the proteins will connect in the same way.

• They will have different stripe patterns because even with the same proteins for stripe pattern, the proteins can connect in different ways.

• They will have different stripe patterns since only offspring from the same parents have the same stripe patterns.
