The answer is the
population size. The chance has a role
in determining whether a given individual survives and reproduces and the
alleles in the offspring are a sample of those in the parents. it is the change
in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to
random sampling of organisms. Genetic Drift or another term for allelic drift
or the Sewall Wright effect.
Answer:
The correct answer is - due to the law of segregation.
Explanation:
In the given case the genotype of Rr and as we know R is a dominant characteristic for round seeds and r represents the recessive allele for wrinkled seeds in a pea plant. So if a plant has Rr in its genotype it means it is a phenotypically round pea plant due to dominance in this heterozygous case.
The law of segregation states that two alleles of a gene of a specific trait will be distributed randomly and there is an equal chance of each allele to end up in the gametes, similarly in this case both alleles can be segregated to gametes and it is a random process.
