In a dihybrid cross of two parents who are heterozygous for bothtraits, what fraction of their offspring will be homozygous recessive for both traits traits

Respuesta :

A dihybrid cross tracks two traits. Both parents are heterozygous, and one allele for each trait exhibits complete dominance. This means that both parents have recessive alleles, but exhibit the dominant phenotype. The phenotype ratio predicted for dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1.

The study of genes and inheritance is called genetics. There are two types of genes and these are recessive and dominant.

The correct answer to the question is 1/16.

What is a dihybrid cross?

The cross between two characters in two different parents is called a dihybrid cross.

According to the question, A dihybrid cross tracks two traits. Both parents are heterozygous, and one allele for each trait exhibits complete dominance. This means that both parents have recessive alleles but exhibit the dominant phenotype. The phenotype ratio predicted for the dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1.

Hence, the total number of offspring produced in the dihybrid cross is 16 and the ratio of pure recessive offspring will be 1/16.
