Answer:

4 genotypically different gametes

Explanation:

Mendel's law of independent assortment of genes states that the alleles of two or more different genes get sorted into gametes independent of one another i.e. the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not affect the allele received for another gene.

In this case, a F1 generation has resulted from the cross between a homozygous dominant parent (AABB) and a homozygous recessive parent (aabb). This F1 generation (AaBb) is said to be a dihybrid because it contains an heterozygous allele for two different genes.

The dihybrid undergoes meiosis and results into four genotypically different types of haploid gametes (sperm and eggs) with equal frequency i.e. if each gamete randomly got an A or a allele and in a separate process, also randomly got a B or b allele.

The four possible combinations of haploid gametes are: AB, Ab, aB, and ab

In dna replication, each individual parent strand acts as a _____ strand for the synthesis of a _____ strand.
irina [24]
The answer is template strand; daughter strand.

<span>In DNA replication, each individual parent strand acts as a <u>template</u> strand for the synthesis of a <u>daughter</u> strand. DNA replication is a process of producing of two identical copies of DNA from the original DNA. DNA molecule consists of two strands and each strand serves as a template strand for the synthesis of a daughter cell. DNA polymerase binds to the origins of replication and synthesises daughter strands by adding complementary nucleotides.</span>

How Can Sex-Linked Traits Be Identified
kkurt [141]

If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be a sex-linked trait. Because the gene controlling the trait is located on the sex chromosome, sex linkage is linked to the gender of the individual. Usually such genes are found on the X chromosome. The Y chromosome is thus missing such genes (See Diagram above.). The result is that females will have two copies of the sex-linked gene while males will only have one copy of this gene. If the gene is recessive, then males only need one such recessive gene to have a sex-linked trait rather than the customary two recessive genes for traits that are not sex-linked. This is why males exhibit some traits more frequently than females.

<span>Examples of Sex-linked Traits: </span>

Red-green colorblindness

Male Pattern Baldness

Hemophilia

<span>Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy</span>
