It must occur in the genetic material of a sex cell
First, we consider the parents:
Phenotypes: Polka dots
Genotypes: Pp
Using a punnet square,
P p
P PP Pp
p Pp pp
Therefore, out of four, the phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring will be as follows:
Phenotypes: 3 with polka dots (75%) and 1 with solid (25%)
Genotypes: 1 dominant homozygous (25%), 1 recessive homozygous (25%) and two dominant heterozygous (50%)
The answer is option D.
Well a,b and c are plants
But d) Zooplankton is a type of animal and does not belong at the bottom of the pyramid.
Good luck! (:
