The testcross makes it possible to determine the genotype of an individual of unknown genotype who exhibits the dominant version

of a trait. is a cross of an individual whose genotype for a trait is not known with an individual who is homozygous recessive for the trait. sometimes requires the production of multiple offspring in order to reveal the genotype of an individual whose genotype is unknown. All of the above answer choices are correct. Both the first and second answer choices are correct.

Answer:

All of the above answer choices are correct.

Explanation:

Test cross is done to find out the genotype of an individual displaying dominant phenotype as it can be homozygous or heterozygous. To find this the individual is crossed with a recessive phenotype individual. For example: a dominant trait tall height can be homozygous TT or heterozygous Tt. If it is TT all the offspring of test cross with tt will be tall. If it is Tt half of the offspring will be tall and half of the offspring will be short.

Multiple offspring are required to come to the final result because offspring production happens in random order and it might take a few tries before another type of phenotype is produced. For example: If a test cross produces an individual with dominant phenotype we can still not surely say if the test individual is homozygous or heterozygous because both can produce dominant phenotype in test cross. We need more offspring to check if the recessive phenotype is produced or not and accordingly decide the genotype of test individual.

Hence all of the above answer choices are correct.

kow [346]

While adding we need to follow that the units of mass i.e., kilogram and gram are converted into grams before addition and then follow the simple addition process. We can add two or more units of mass given in kilogram and grams like ordinary numbers. Always express grams as 3-digit numbers for example 3 g = 003 g.
