- A true breeding plant that produces elongated fruits is crossed to a true breeding plant that produces round fruits. The offspring of this cross all have oval-shaped fruit. Which of the following is true? A. This involves two genes, one that controls the length of the fruit and one that controls the width. B. This long allele is epistatic over the short allele. C. The long allele is dominant over the short allele. D. The long allele is incompletely dominant over the short allele.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is false, regarding the law of segregation? A. It states that each of two alleles for a given trait segregate into different gametes. B. It can be explained by the segregation of sister chromatids during mitosis. C. It can account for the 3:1 ratio seen in the F2 generation of Mendel's crosses. D. It can be used to predict the likelihood of transmission of certain genetic diseases within families.arrow_forwardBased on the allelic gene interaction in Australian milking shorthorn cattle breeds, the mating of a red cattle (RR) and white cattle is depicted in the picture below. What is gene interaction involved in this resulting coat color of the offspring? see photo attached a. Complete dominance b. Incomplete dominance c. Codominance d. Additive gene actionarrow_forward
- The color of chickens is determined by interacting loci: AA or Aa give white, aaBB or aaBb give colored, and aabb produce white. Describe the epistatic interactions occurring between these two genes: A. aa is epistatic to B_, bb and bb are epistatic to A_,aa B. A_ is epistatic to B_,bb and bb is epistatic to A_,aa C. None of the abovearrow_forwardWhen you cross true-breeding tall and short tobacco plants you get an F1 that is intermediate in height. When this F1 is self-crossed, it yields an F2 with a continuous distribution of heights. What is the best explanation for these data? a. Height is determined by a single gene with incomplete dominance. b. Height is determined by a single gene with many alleles. c. Height is determined by the additive effects of many genes. d. Height is determined by epistatic genes.arrow_forwardIn a certain species of plant loci A, B and C have an additive effect on the colour of the flower.
