Can a charlie rabbit produce solid offspring?

The correct answer is based on the genetics of rabbit coloration. A charlie rabbit possesses a specific genetic condition known as "charlie," which is linked to the combination of genes that affect its coat color pattern. Charlie rabbits carry a particular allele that prevents the expression of solid color in their offspring. As a result, when bred, a charlie rabbit cannot pass on the solid coat color gene necessary for producing solid offspring. Therefore, it cannot produce offspring with a solid color regardless of what other rabbits it is bred with.

The other options present scenarios that do not align with the established understanding of genetics in rabbits. Breeding two charlie rabbits would not yield solid-colored offspring, as they share the genetic traits that lead to the charlie pattern, thus reinforcing the notion that solid-colored offspring are not a possibility. Additionally, simply breeding between show rabbits does not inherently change the genetic coding of the charlie rabbit. Hence, the answer reflects the genetic reality that charlie rabbits do not carry the genes needed for producing solid offspring.
