two identical cells heterozygous for gene q are undergoing meiosis. what is the probability that two haploid gametes selected from the products of meiosis both contain a recessive allele for gene q?

Respuesta :

The recessive allele for gene q is 0.5

What do you mean by Heterozygous cell?

  • Heterozygous cell can be defined as a diploid organism.
  • It is present at a  gene locus when its cells contain two different alleles (one wild-type allele and one mutant allele) of a gene.
  • The cell or organism is called a heterozygote.
  • Example include being heterozygous for hair color could mean you have one allele for red hair and one allele for brown hair.
  • An organism that has different copies of a gene for a particular trait is considered heterozygous for that trait.
  • A recessive allele does not produce a trait at all when only one copy is present.

Hence, the gene q is 0.5
