For each of the diploid genotypes presented below, determine the genetic make up for all of the possible haploid gametes.
a. Rr
b. RrYy
c. rrYy
d. RrYY
e. RrYyBb

Respuesta :

Oseni

Answer:

a. R and r

b. RY, Ry, rY, and ry

c. rY and ry

d. RY and rY

e. RYB, RYb, RyB, Ryb, rYB, rYb, ryB, and ryb

Explanation:

According to Mendelian principle, a gene is made up of 2 alleles and these alleles segregate during gametes formation to randomly unite back during fertilization. Hence;

Rr can only segregate as R and r

RrYy can segregate as RY, Ry, rY, and ry

rrYy can only segregate as rY and ry

RrYY can only segregate as RY and rY

RrYyBb can segregate as RYB, RYb, RyB, Ryb, rYB, rYb, ryB, and ryb

Each of the diploid genotypes are:

  • R and r
  • RY, Ry, rY, and ry
  • rY and ry
  • RY and rY
  • RYB, RYb, RyB, Ryb, rYB, rYb, ryB, and ryb

According to Mendel's Law of Segregation.

What is Mendel's law of segregation assortment?

For the F2 generation, the law of segregation requires that each gamete acquire either an R allele or an r allele along with either a Y allele or a y allele.

The law of independent assortment says that a gamete into which an r allele is sorted would be equally likely to contain either a Y allele or a y allele.

Thus, is based on Mendel's law of segregation assortment.
