Question:

In cats, a temperature-sensitive allele produces the Siamese phenotype in which the cooler extremities are dark and the warmer trunk area is lighter. A Siamese cat that spends most of its time outside was accidentally injured in a trap and required several stitches in its right front paw. The veterinarian had to shave the fur from the paw and leg, which originally had rather dark fur. Later, when the fur grew back, it was much lighter than the fur on the other three legs. Do you think this injury occurred in the hot summer or cold winter? Explain your answer.
