1. Choose all that apply. Choose all of the TRUE statements below. Parental offspring inherit the combination of phenotypes of the original parents. The closer two genes are on the same chromosome, the more likely the alleles will remain linked. Two genes that are on the same chromosome are in the same linkage group. Crossing over between two genes on the same chromosome can unlink and then relink the alleles.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
