Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

homo-zygous lethal dominant

Explanation:

A homo-zygous lethal pattern is a type of inheritance where an allele is lethal in homo-zygous individuals. In normal dominance, the expected genotype ratio when F1 heterozygous individuals are crossed is 1:2:1 (i.e. 1 homo-zygous dominant: 2 heterozygous individuals and 1 homo-zygous recessive), while the phenotypic ratio is 3:1 (3 individuals expressing the dominant allele: 1 individual only expressing the recessive allele). In this case, the homo-zygous lethal allele changes the expected F2 phenotypic ratio to 2:1 (i.e., 2 heterozygous singing Beetles : 1 homo-zygous recessive non-singing Beetles), where the partially dominant allele is lethal in homo-zygous individuals.
