What is the genotype of the parent with orange eyes and white skin? (note: orange eyes are recessive.)b=black eyes g=green skinb=orange eyes g=white skina. bbggb. bbggc. bbggd. bbgge bbgg

D

Explanation:

Two genes are involved in this case: one coding for eye color and the other for skin color.

According to the question, the allele for Black eyes (B) is dominant over the allele for orange eyes (b) while on the other gene, the allele for green skin (G) is dominant over the allele for white skin (g).

This means both alleles for orange eyes (b) and white skin (g) are recessive i.e masked by their counterpart allele

Since they are recessive, they will only be phenotypically expressed if they are in their homozygous state. i.e same type of allele.

In this case, the parent has orange eyes and white skin i.e.both recessive traits

Therefore, the genotype will be bbgg.
