    Answer: 6

    The pair of alleles present at a single locus is defined as a genotype. With three alleles A, B and C there are six possible genotypes: AA, AB, AC, BB, BC and CC.

    Explanation:

    Given there are three alleles for coat coloration in rabbits: A, B and C. There are three alleles but they can come together only in the combination of two since there are two loci for a trait.

    Hence the combination would be as follows:

    AB AC BC AA BB CC
