Biology - Principles of Inheritance and Variation Question with Solution | TestHub
Which one of the following crosses will have all the offsprings with recessive phenotype in the F generation?
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
For all offspring in the F generation to have a recessive phenotype, the initial parents must be homozygous recessive for all the traits.
In the cross rryy rryy, both parents are homozygous recessive. They will produce only one type of gamete (ry).
The F generation will all have the genotype rryy, which expresses the recessive phenotype.
When the F individuals are crossed (rryy rryy) to produce the F generation, all the resulting offspring will again have the genotype rryy.
Therefore, all offspring in the F generation will exhibit the recessive phenotype.
Answer: rryy x rryy
