Question

Organisms with the same phenotypes:

must have similar genotypes

are all derived from the same parents

always carry recessive traits

may have different genotypes

can only be offspring of heterozygous parents

Two genes on two different chromosomes have an epistatic interaction. The inheritance of these two genes follows:

The law of segregation

The law of independent assortment

Both of the above

None of the above

A.

must have similar genotypes

B.

are all derived from the same parents

C.

always carry recessive traits

D.

may have different genotypes

E.

can only be offspring of heterozygous parents

Explanation / Answer

Organisms with the same phenotypes:
The answer is D. may have different genotypes

Becuase the dominant allele can express her character in both homo and heterozygous in conditions, where as the recessieve allel can express her character in homozygous condition only.

Two genes on two different chromosomes have an epistatic interaction. The inheritance of these two genes follows:
B. The law of independent assortment

Which means one gene assorts independently irrespective of other gene.
