A white mouse with red eyes is crossed with a black mouse with brown eyes. The white mouse is recessive for both of its traits. The black mouse is dominant for both of its traits.

This cross would be

• BBEE x bbee

• BBEe x BbEe

• BbEE x BbEe

• BBee x BBEE

In certain camels, one hump (H) is dominant over two humps (h) while long necks (N) are dominant over short necks (n). Cross a camel that is heterozygous for both traits with a camel that is homozygous recessive for hump & heterozygous for the neck.

What is the probability for an offspring to be homozygous recessive for both traits? [Answer in fraction]
