Attached earlobes are recessive to free earlobes. If two heterozygous individuals have a child, what is the probability of the child having attached earlobes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

probability of the child having attached earlobes since it is recessive i.e (yy)

=1/4

=0.25 × 100%

=25%

Explanation:

If two heterozygous individuals have a child

i.e let the heterozygous individuals be  = Xy

if both traits crosses together; their F₁ offspring will be;  (XX, Xy, Xy, yy)

Xy  ×   Xy

          X             y

X        XX          Xy

y       Xy            yy

probability of the child having attached earlobes since it is recessive i.e (yy)

=1/4

=0.25 × 100%

=25%
