Answer:Variation in single and multiple genes.

Explanation:

This is due to changes in the sequence of nucleotides in the GENE on specific loci located on the chromosomes of the DNA molecule.

The change may be due MUTATION. Therefore the expression of phenotype may be different from Madelia laws of independent assortments of genes, because the genes may be linked together and assort jointly,(linkage), or some genes may not have full dominance over the other(incomplete dominance and codominance). Some alleles of another gene may mask or conceal the expression of other allele

Example of these exceptions to the independent assortments are Incomplete dominance, codominance, sex –linkage, epistasis, complementary genes.

Answer:

Linkage

Explanation:

<em>The existence of two loci on the same chromosome (linkage) increases the chances of the genes on these loci to assort or be inherited together. </em>

The closer the two loci on the chromosome, the higher the chances of the two genes being inherited together and further apart they are, the lower the chances because the two genes are more likely to be separated during recombination.

Hence, if two loci on the same chromosome produce progeny that do not fit the predicted phenotypes according to the law of independent assortment, it means the two loci are linked.

<em>The answer is linkage.</em>

Incomplete Dominance Monohybrid Cross
Ilya [14]

a) RR red  BB Blue and RB purple are the genotypes of flower colour in incomplete dominance.

b) 0% probability

c) There is 100% probability of purple colour flowers

d) 0% probability

Explanation:

a)If a poofkin with red flower is crossed with blue flowers:

Alleles for red colour RR

Alleles for blue colour BB

By Punnett square:

    R     R

B   RB  RB

B    RB  RB

b) genotype of red flower =  no red flower hence 0% probability

c) probability of purple flowers =  100%

d) probability of blue flowers = 0% probability

The incomplete dominance is a phenomenon in which both the genotypes are expressed in the phenotype of the progeny. It occurs when both the alleles of the gene are dominant over each other resulting into intermediate characteristic. The heterozygous progeny will be the intermediate in phenotypic characters.
