Two heterozygous rabbits have already produced three offspring, and all three show the dominant characteristic. How does this affect the chance that the next offspring shows the recessive characteristic?

It is unchanged, because each offspring gets its own independent pair of allelesRespuesta correcta
It rises, because the recessive characteristic is now overdue
It falls, because this pair evidently passes on the dominant allele
It becomes impossible, because the earlier offspring used up the recessive outcomes

Explicación

Every offspring is formed from a fresh pair of gametes, and the gametes that made the earlier offspring are gone rather than taken out of a limited store. What has already happened leaves the alleles held by the parents exactly as they were, so the odds facing the next offspring are those that faced the first.
