Question 44

A rabbit shows the recessive form of the same characteristic. Which genotype does it have?

  1. Homozygous dominant
  2. Homozygous recessiveCorrect answer
  3. Heterozygous
  4. Either heterozygous or homozygous recessive

Explanation

Only one allele pair can produce the recessive appearance, because any dominant allele present would hide it, so both alleles must be the recessive form. Leaving a mixed pair open as a second possibility does not work, since a mixed pair would have shown the dominant form instead.
