Question

You set up a series of Mendelian dihybrid crosses beginning with a true-breeding green, dwarf pea plant and a true-breeding yellow, tall pea plant to obtain F1 offspring. A self-cross of Fi offspring generates F2 offspring. Which of the following is a false statement regarding these crosses? O These traits are autosomal and follow a dominant/recessive mode of inheritance. O The original parents are homozygous for each trait they possess. O "Green, dwarf" is contrasting in relation to 'yellow, tall" O The traits, observed among the offspring result from recombination events that occur during meiosis Question 8 1 pts What type of cross should be used to support the hypothesis that a trait is X-linked and not autosomal?

Explanation / Answer

the answer that is false is the third since it does not show a complete dominance that is to say, in a dihíbrido crossing like the one that is described the alleles remain independent, the genes behave as independent units, there is no complete dominance.
In addition, the original parents if they are homozygous, that is, they come from pure races (homozygous) for the two characters and the dihibited crossing is a direct consequence of the rearrangement of the chromosomes during the first division of meiosis.
