A scientist is studying the inheritance of two genes, gene R and gene P. in dogs. Each gene is located on a different chromosome. Gene R has two
alleles, R and r, and gene P has two alleles, P and p.
What are the expected probabilities for the genotypes of gametes produced by a dog with the genotype RrPp?
O 50% Rr and 50% Pp
O 50% RP and 50% rp
O 50% Rp. 25% IP, and 25% rp
25RP, 2596 Rp. 25% rP, and 25% rp

Respuesta :

The expected probabilities for the genotypes of gametes are 25%RP, 25%Rp, 25%rP, and 25%rp. It is a case of a double heterozygous cross.

Alleles and genetic crosses

An allele is a gene variant, diploid organisms receive two alleles for a given locus (one from the mother and the other from the father).

In the next generation, an individual has the same probability to pass each allele to his/her offspring (when alleles from different loci are not linked).

In this case, the F1 will produce gametes with unlinked genes for two different loci.
