5 Which Offspring Could Not Arise From The Parent Cells With The Chromosomes Shown Below Assume Crossovers Can Occur Between Chromosome Pairs In The Parent Cell class=

Sagot :

Answer:The answer is B because with 3/4 of the L trait being dominant, it’s impossible to have an offspring with the recessive trait

Correct answer: B, Offspring B.

The genotype of the parents are CcBbLLRR and CcBbLlRr respectively. Crossing over takes place between 2 non-sister chomatids. After crossing over between the parents there are possibilities of forming 3 types of offsprings as depicted in the above image: ccBbLlRr, CcBBLlRR and ccbbLLRr. The offspring B with heterozygous condition for eye colour will have Rr genes. R- red colour is the dominant color over orange color.
