Question

In dragons, a gene on chromosome 1 codes for wing color and a gene on chromosome 2 codes for body color. Draw out the stages of meiosis for these two chromosomes from a dragon that is heterozygous for both traits. Make sure that, within your drawing, you define your alleles. Also, in your drawing include all the possible allele combinations of the gametes produced.

Answer 1

Answer:

Possible gametes produced - (XY) (xY) (Xy) (xy)

Explanation:

For Wing color -

Dominant allele = X

Recessive allele = x

For Body color -

Dominant allele = Y

Recessive allele = y

Parent genotype - XxYy

Possible gametes produced - (XY) (xY) (Xy) (xy)

The figure is as follows :
