Cataquacks know their colors?

[Boidoh]

Well i have this idea that when 2 differently colored cataquacks reproduce, they make another color cataquack which could explain different colors of cataquack on peach beach.

Ok so the Red and Blue cataquacks seem to have produced the purple cataquacks. But how did the green ones get there?
My guess is a yellow pianta *bleep* it....

Green ones are either a mutation or the traits for the colors are co-dominant/incomplete dominance

 

[Boidoh]

Yellow Pianta + Blue Cataquack = Green Piaquack?

 

[Xiahou Ba]

No

Hereditary doesn't quite work like that (eg mixing colors)

 

[Boidoh]

White Person + Black Person = Sad Grey Person.

So Yellow Creature + Blue Cataquack = Green Catacreature.

They should use Cataquacks more. They are really awesome

Boidoh, are you sure you know how genetics work?

BLOF's explanation seems the most reasonable to me.

 

[Xiahou Ba]

Blue: Dominant trait (because it seems that there are more blue ones than red ones)
Red: Recessive trait

BB = Blue Cataquack
bb = Red Cataquack

Purple ones are the result of incomplete dominance

Bb = Purple Cataquack

Green ones either have to be mutations or speciation caused by some sort of isolation

I do know how genetics work its just that this is the mario universe where nothing makes sense....


Anyways its obvious that the green ones are albino blue cataquacks...

White Person + Black Person = Sad Grey Person

I also support BLOF's explanation.
