By ONLY looking at locus FCA26, which female lion is the mother of Cub #712?
628
630
687
If female 687 is the mother of Cub 712, who is the father?
Male 633
Male 631
Male 668
Why was it critical to use these four genes instead of just one?
The males and females in the pride share some of the same alleles because they are related, so you need to look at multiple genes to eliminate possible parents.
The males and females in the pride share some of the same alleles because they are NOT related, so you need to look at multiple genes to eliminate possible parents.
It's not critical to use four genes instead of one gene.
