In sheep, the allele for white wool (A) is dominant over the allele for black wool (a). How would you determine the genotype of a white ram, or male sheep?

To determine the genotype of a white ram, you would need to look at the alleles that are being inherited from the parents. If the ram's parents had either two white wool alleles (AA) or one white wool allele (Aa), then the genotype of the white ram would be AA or Aa. If both of the ram's parents had black wool alleles (aa), then the white ram would have heterozygous genotype Aa.
