Answer:A) form of gene

Explanation:

An allele is one of the different variants of a gene. It is one of the two or more genes found on the same locus on a chromosome which determines a specific trait in an organism. An allele can be dominant or recessive. A dominant allele is the allele that has the ability to mask the effects of a recessive gene when it is paired with the recessive gene while a recessive lacks the ability to express itself in the presence of a dominant allele. For a recessive allele to express itself, it must occur in a homozygous form.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The genotypic frequency = 1:1

The phenotypic frequency = 1:1

Explanation:

Given that:

The allele → R = Red beetles

The allele → B = Blue beetles

Since the gene color shows a codominant allele

The Red Beetle = RR

The blue beetles will be = BB

The heterozygous beetle will be = RB

∴

The punnet square showing the crossing of RB × RR is:

                R                   B

R                RR               RB

R                RR               RB

The result shows that we have two red beetles and two heterozygous beetles.

Hence;

The genotypic frequency = 1:1

The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
