A mouse breeder recently created a short-tailed mutant. When crossed with a long-tailed mouse, 8 long tailed and 7 short tailed offspring were created (50% each). When 2 of these
short-tailed mice were bred with each other, 8 short tailed and 4 long tailed offspring were
created. What type of inheritance is this and which phenotype is dominant?
