Question

1 multiple choice 2 points the idea that for any particular trait, the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele from each parent passes to an offspring is mendels principle of: dominance hybridization segregation independent assortment 2 multiple choice 2 points punnett squares are used by geneticists to determine the probability of different offspring genotypes. in the one shown below, what letter(s) belong in the lower right box? a a a a ? aa aa aa

Explanation:

1. Mendel's principle of segregation states that for any particular trait, the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele from each parent passes to an offspring. The principle of dominance is about one allele masking the other, hybridization is about cross - breeding, and independent assortment is about the independent inheritance of different traits.
2. In a Punnett square, you combine the alleles from the top and the left - hand side. The lower right box combines the 'a' from the left - hand side and the 'a' from the top, resulting in 'aa'.

Answer:

1. C. segregation
2. C. aa
