Answer:

1. If you will cross a pure black horse with a roan horse, it will produce 2 pure black horses and 2 roan coat horses.

  Genotype :               Phenotype

          2 BB                 (black)

          2 BW                 (roan)

Genotypic Ratio           Phenotypic Ratio

       2:2                                  2:2

2. If you cross 2 blue roan horse, the cross will produce 1 pure black horse, 2blue roan horses and 1 purewhite horse.

 Genotype :               Phenotype          

          1 BB                 (black)

          2 BW                (roan)

          1  WW               (white)

Genotypic Ratio           Phenotypic Ratio
