Siamese cats show a range of coat colours on a single individual because:

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Coat colour is a polygenic trait with many genotypes possible in the breed

  • The breed was originally formed by the mating of a pale coat cold-climate cat and a brown coat warm-climate cat

  • Frequent somatic mutation occurs in the TYR genes when cats are not kept warm

  • Cats arise from the fusion of 2 or more zygotes causing genetic mosaicism

  • They are homozygous for a missense mutation in TYR that produces a heat sensitive tyrosinase protein
