Question

For an individual who is heterozygous for two genes, Aa and Bb, what does independent assortment predict? Offspring inheriting the recessive allele (a) of the first gene will inherit the dominant allele (B) of the second gene. Offspring inheriting the dominant allele (A) of the first gene will also inherit the dominant (B) allele of the second gene. Offspring inheriting the dominant (A) allele of the first gene are equally likely to inherit either the dominant (B) or the recessive (b) allele of the second gene.

Answer 1

Answer:

For an individual who is heterozygous for two genes, Aa and Bb, what does independent assortment predict? Offspring inheriting the recessive allele

of the first gene will also inherit the dominant

Explanation:

Aa x Bb= AB, Ab, aB and ab

so the first gene will also inherit the dominant gene
