Investigating Independent Assortment


Here are some questions and answers about what happens when geneticists consider more than one gene at a time. Down below are some of the websites I gathered information from.

1. What type of gametes will be produced by a plant of genotype AaBb?

  • AB
  • Ab
  • Ba
  • ab



2. What type of gametes will be produced by a plant of genotype aabb?

  • aa
  • bb
  • ba
  • ba



3. List all the genotypes you would find among the offspring of an AaBb x aabb test cross.


  • AB
  • Ab
  • Ba
  • ab


4. What is the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring of an AaBb x aabb test cross? Show the punnett square you would use for predicting the outcomes.





5.What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios from a AaBb x Aabb mating? Show the punnett square you would use for predicting the outcomes.







6. List all possible gametes from a trihybrid individual whose genotype is RrSsTt.

  • RS
  • Rs
  • Sr
  • rs
  • Rt
  • Tr
  • rt
  • ST
  • St
  • Ts
  • st
