7. In a monohybrid test-cross with simple dominance, the F2 generation is expected to: a. express only the dominant trait b. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 3:1 ratio c. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 9:3:3:1 ratio d. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 1:1 ratio 8. Features that exhibit continuous quantitative variation are often the result of: a. polygenic inheritance b. co-dominance c. epistasis d. pleiotropy 9. In a dihybrid test-cross with complete dominance, the F2 generation is expected to: a. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 1:2:1 ratio b. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 3:1 ratio c. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 9:3:3:1 ratio d. express both dominant and recessive traits in a 1:1 ratio
Genetic Variation
Genetic variation refers to the variation in the genome sequences between individual organisms of a species. Individual differences or population differences can both be referred to as genetic variations. It is primarily caused by mutation, but other factors such as genetic drift and sexual reproduction also play a major role.
Quantitative Genetics
Quantitative genetics is the part of genetics that deals with the continuous trait, where the expression of various genes influences the phenotypes. Thus genes are expressed together to produce a trait with continuous variability. This is unlike the classical traits or qualitative traits, where each trait is controlled by the expression of a single or very few genes to produce a discontinuous variation.
