Expert Solution
Step 1
The number of gametes that can be formed is indicated by the no. of heterozygous alleles present in the given genotype. The formula used to calculate the number of gametes that can be formed is 2n where n= refers to the no. of heterozygous allele present.
The first genotype mentioned is AaBb
No. of heterozygous allele is ; n = 2
Putting it in the formula; 2n = 22 = 4
Therefore, no. of gametes for the genotype AaBb is 4
