calculate the proportions of offspring with each genotype and phenotype that would be produced by mating parents with various combinations of the two alleles?
Which two processes result in the introduction of genetic variation during meiosis? Provide a brief definition of each. A final event (after gamete formation) further contributes to the amount of variation observed within a population. What event is this and why?
A scientist predicts that the kittens born with a congenital birth defect will be 25% based on the hypothesis that it is caused be a recessive gene in that breed of cat. After surveying several litters, he found that 44 out of 128 kittens had the defect. Is his hypothesis correct?
