If two heterozygous rats (Bb) are mated, where B represents the dominant black fur and b represents the recessive white fur, their offspring would follow a typical Mendelian inheritance pattern. The expected genotypic ratio of the offspring would be 1 BB (homozygous black) : 2 Bb (heterozygous black) : 1 bb (homozygous white). Consequently, about 75% of the offspring would have black fur and 25% would have white fur.
