Multiple choice is helpful as it's process of elimination. The alleles answer threw everyone I think, if you look up the explanation for albinism it is a genetic thing requiring a common recesive gene, but a gene is made up of alleles therefore if the alleles are the same as a common animal it will be a common animal in appearance, BUT if the genes are common to the recessive trait they are still the same as that animals genes in general terms, where the lower lying alleles within the gene are not.
