Answer:
four phenotypes appear in the ratio 9:3:3:1
Explanation:
<em>For a dihybrid cross in which the two genes concerned obey simple dominant/recessive law and are independently assorting, </em><em>four phenotypes are produced in the ratio 9:3:3:1. </em>
The dominant gene takes up the largest ratio (9/16) while the recessive gene takes up the smallest (1/16). Any deviation from 9:3:3:1 and the number of phenotypes produced from a dihybrid cross is an indication that the genes involved do not obey Mendelian laws.
So it could fit perfectly.
It gets plasmolysed due to exosmosis.
Haploid means half, and diploid means double of the half, and so its diploid number will be 20⋅2=40 if its haploid number is 20 .
