If alleles of two genes separate randomly during anaphase-I of meiosis, some new combinations of the alleles are formed in the gametes. A heterozygous genotype for two loci (let's support TtRr) produces a total of four types of gametes in 1:1:1:1 ratio (TR, Tr, tR, and tr). The random fusion of these gametes from two double heterozygous parents (TtRr x TtRr) gives a phenotype ratio of 9:3:3:1. Here, 9/16 F2 progeny exhibit dominant phenotype for both loci while 1/16 exhibits recessive phenotype for both the genes. Rest 3/16 and 3/16 F2 progeny express dominant trait for one gene and recessive for the other.
The coastal ocean zone and estuaries are alike in that both are important as breeding and nesting areas for birds. The depth of the water in an aquatic ecosystem determines the amount of sunlight that living things receive there. ... The water in freshwater wetlands is always brackish
