Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The option that shows all allele combinations that can be used to represent a purebred animal would be:

- Homozygous Dominant (AA)
- Homozygous Recessive (aa)

Answer 2

To represent a purebred animal, you need to consider the genotype, which consists of allele combinations. The option that shows all allele combinations for a purebred animal is called a homozygous genotype. In a purebred animal, both alleles for a particular trait are the same. Therefore, the homozygous genotype can be represented in one of two ways:

1. Homozygous Dominant (AA): Both alleles are dominant. For example, if "A" represents the dominant trait (e.g., brown fur color), then a purebred animal with brown fur would have the genotype AA.

2. Homozygous Recessive (aa): Both alleles are recessive. For example, if "a" represents the recessive trait (e.g., white fur color), then a purebred animal with white fur would have the genotype aa.

Note: The option for a purebred animal may differ based on the specific trait being considered.
