In a species of Yeti (the Abominable Snowman, not the cooler/thermos company) Foot Size (big or small) is controlled by one gene, while Head Shape (round or lumpy) is controlled by different gene. Suppose that a big-footed lumpy-headed male Yeti mates with a small-footed round-headed female Yeti. 8 offspring result: 4 big-footed, round-headed Yeti and 4 small-footed, round-headed Yeti. (Assume that the parents are not necessarily homozygous for each allele.) If big feet (B) in Yeti were to be dominant to small feet (b), what would be the genotype of the big-footed parent with respect to the foot gene?
