Question

In humans, six fingers (F) is dominant to five fingers (f). Assume both parents are heterozygous for six fingers.c) What are the different gametes each parent can produce?

Answer 1

Answer: F or f

Explanation:

The cross between the two parent is a monohybrid cross and since the parents are heterozygous the genotype will be Ff for both parents and either of the F or f could be the gametes for both the male and female parent .

A cross between this two parents will give -three genotype in ratio 1:2:1 (FF, Ff Ff, ff) and two phenotype this include a six fingered person and five fingered person.

Ff× Ff

F or f - gametes

FF Ff Ff ff- offspring
