Question

1. Which of the following may not likely be possible when a tall man marries a short woman ?

Answer 1

Answer:

The gene for having a tall stature is a recessive trait. So the man can have only as genotype "aa". The short woman can have instead as genotype either Aa or AA. in the first case, we have both tall and short children while in the second case only short children.

So the answer is A) All the progeny may be tall.
