Explain why different gametes produced by the same person can have different combinations of alleles for genes that are located

on two different chromosomes
Biology

Gnoma [55]3 years ago

Because we all have 23 pairs of chromosomes, one half from your Dad, one half from your Mum. Therefore, you will have different combinations of genes in your chromosomes from being born. However, when gametes are formed from Meiosis, the chromosomes are split apart, then form a new cell before being split apart yet again. Since 4 cells are created from Meiosis, all 4 gametes will be completely different. Hope this answered it.

If a corn plant was heterozygous for kernel color and seed shape, what would be the genotype of the plant?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the plant will be PpSs and the phenotype will be purple colour and smooth shaped. </em>

Explanation:

Considering the description in the question, we know that purple colour is dominant over the yellow colour and smooth shape is dominant over the wrinkled shape.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which arises due to the same alleles of a gene. A heterozygous trait arises when both the alleles of a gene are different. In such a case, one allele will be dominant over the other one and the phenotype of the dominant allele will be seen in the plant. As purple colour and smooth shape are dominant traits, hence they will be seen in the heterozygous plant.
