Answer:
12 : 3 : 1
Explanation:
According to Mendel's principles, a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous summer squash parents (WwGg X WwGg) should yield offsprings, 12 with white, 3 with yellow and 1 with green color phenotype. The classic Mendelian phenotypic ratio for dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1. In this case, genotypes W- G- and W- gg produce white color phenotype. This is because we have 12: 3: 1 phenotypic ratio in which the alleles of two different genes assort independently into gametes.
<em>Dihybrid cross for heterozygous summer squash:</em>
WG Wg wG wg
WG WWGG WWGg WwGG WwGg
Wg WWGg WWgg WwGg Wwgg
wG WwGG WwGg wwGG wwGg
wg WwGg Wwgg wwGg wwgg
Genotypes:
W-G- and W- gg = white = 12
ww G- = yellow = 3
ww gg = green = 1
I believe that B and D are the only answers that I am sure of. C is incorrect and A seems incorrect as well. E may be a correct answer, but you will need to check the chemical equation. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Sexual reproduction increases the genetic variation within the population, because new individuals are made by randomly combining genetic material from two parents. Because only fit individuals reach sexual maturity and reproduce, the overall population tends toward increasing fitness in its environment.
