Question

Explain how the alleles were passed from parents to offspring.

Answer 1

Answer:

The offspring inherit one allele from parent. Sometimes an organism inherits two dominant allele or two recessive allele for a trait.

The organism represent the traits carried by the allele. Say: If the organism has two allele for curly hair then the hair of the organism will be curly.

The traits are dependent on the type of allele which is being carried whether it is a dominant allele or recessive allele.

Answer 2

The offspring received one allele from each parent. The alleles were separated during gamete formation before they were passed to the offspring
