No there is no selective pressure that confers an advantage to those who do taste it.

<h3>What is PTC?</h3>

Despite the fact that PTC isn't found in nature, tasting other bitter substances—many of which are toxins—that do occur naturally has a high correlation with taste sensitivity.

In order to defend themselves from being eaten, plants develop a range of harmful substances. Early humans developed the capacity to distinguish bitter tastes as a safeguard against ingesting dangerous plants. There are roughly 30 genes in humans that produce bitter taste receptors. People may taste a large variety of bitter substances because each receptor can interact with a number of different molecules.

Answer:

<em>The correct option is 'this guinea pig could be homozygous dominant (HH) or heterozygous (Hh).'</em>

Explanation:

When both the alleles of a gene are the same then they are termed to be homozygous. If a gene possesses two different types of alleles then it is termed as heterozygous.

A dominant allele is the one which can suppress the effect of a recessive allele. A recessive allele is the one which gets masked by the dominant allele.

For a dominant trait to occur, an organism can either be homozygous dominant for that trait or it can be heterozygous for the trait.

How might it be possible for a child to show a trait that neither of the parents showed?​
e-lub [12.9K]

A person can only show a recessive trait if both of their parents carried at least one copy of each of the recessive allele. The parents do not need to show the trait, as one copy is not enough to reveal it, but they must both carry it.

Hope this helped!
