A heter0zygous parent (Aa) has one dominant allele (A) and one recessive allele (a). They will produce 4 gametes and half of their alleles are recessive so there is 50% that a given gamete will be recessive (2 gametes have recessive, 2 gametes have dominant)
Assuming the gene is represented by the allele G (dominant), the alternate form (recessive) of the allele will be g.
A heter0zygous pea plant will have the genotype Gg. During gamete formation, Gg will split into G and g gametes.
Thus, 2 is the probability that a gamete will be recessive in a heterozygous parent.
