b) What proportion of the F₂ genotypes will be recessive for all five loci?
c) Would you change your answers to (a) and/or (b) if the initial cross occurred between $\text { AAbbCCddee } \times a a B B c c D D E E$ parents?
d) Would you change your answers to (a) and/or (b) if the initial cross occurred between $A A B B C C D D E E \times a a b b c c d d E E$ parents?
