This may be caused by the fact that the Royal Bengal tiger population has dropped from 40‚000 to 1‚800 in the past ten years and as few as one in every 10‚000 tigers is white (www.cranes.org/whitetiger). White tigers are neither albinos nor a special species. They differ from the normally colored tigers by having blue eyes

Question: If I cross a female apterous fly with a male wild fly‚ what would the offspring look like? Hypothesis: If I cross a female apterous fly with a male wild fly‚ then the offspring will be a 50% chance of a apterous fly or 50% chance of a wild fly. If I cross a female apterous fly with a male wild fly‚ then the offspring will be a 100% wild fly. Supporting Evidence for Hypothesis: Apterous flies have no wings‚ and are a recessive gene‚ while wild flies have wings and are a dominant gene
