Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be option 2.

In humans, the color of the eyes was thought as a simple Mendelian trait however, it has been found that the color of the eye follows polygenic inheritance, that is, it is determined by multiple genes.

A set of 15 genes is responsible for the color of the eyes. Two genes out of these 15 are OCA2 and HERC2 which are present on chromosome 15.

Thus we can conclude that eye colour is polygenic trait which does not follow Mendelian genetics.

The right answer is B and C.

For proposal C, I will give you an example, that of an autosomal recessive disease. If a parent is heterozygous for an allele causing an autosomal recessive disease (due to a mutation), it may be that it transmits the allele to its descendence, as it may not be able to transmit it (since in one heterozygous subject, not all of its gametes carry the mutated allele) and thus the mutation will no longer be copied through the generaitons.

Each individual is genetically unique. Its genes are distributed along chromosomes contained in the nucleus. Mutations can lead to the appearance of different versions of genes: alleles. A diploid individual has two copies of each gene, which may be identical or different alleles. Mixing during sexual reproduction partly explains the genetic diversity of individuals.
