Question
- in a group of guinea pigs, some individuals have brown eyes and others have red eyes. in this group, the gene for the eye color trait has two alleles. the allele e is for brown eyes, and the allele e is for red eyes.1) dandelion, a guinea pig from this group, has brown eyes. dandelion has one allele for brown eyes and one allele for red eyes.1) based on this information, click the blue words to correct any errors in the text.1) dandelion is homozygous for the eye color gene.dandelions genotype for the eye color gene is ee.dandelions genotype for the eye color trait is brown eyes.
Brief Explanations
- For the first sentence: An organism with two different alleles (E and e) is heterozygous, not homozygous.
- For the second sentence: Dandelion has one E and one e allele, so the genotype is Ee, not EE.
- For the third sentence: "Brown eyes" is the phenotype (physical trait), not the genotype. The genotype is Ee.
