    Body colour of mice depends on the gene of the mice.

    Explanation:

    Body colour is a character of mice, and it has different traits like light coloured and dark coloured. The body colour is formed because of the specific genes present in their DNA, which is present in chromosomes. The wild variety of the body colour is dark coloured, while the mutated variety of the body colour is light colored. As the mutations are usually recessive over the wild varieties, so the dark colour is dominant over the light coloured.

    So when a pure dark coloured mice is crossed with a purely light coloured mice, the offsprings are all dark coloured.
