chromosomes
D. Gametes
E. Genetically varied offspring - Precise Answer ✔✔D. Gametes
Nondisjunction:
A. Is the unequal division of the genetic material
during cell division
B. Occurs during meiosis but not mitosis

, All of the offspring of a black mouse and a white
mouse are gray. The simplest explanation for this
pattern of inheritance is:
A. Multiple alleles
B. Co-dominance
C. Incomplete dominance
D. Incomplete heterozygosity
E. Sex linkage - Precise Answer ✔✔C) incomplete dominance.
The Test Cross:
A. Makes it possible to determine the genotype of an individual of
unknown genotype that
exhibits the dominant trait
B. Is a cross between an individual whose genotype for a trait is not
known and an
individual homozygous recessive for the trait
C. Sometimes requires the production of multiple offspring to reveal the
genotype of an
individual whose genotype is unknown
D. All of the Above
E. Only A and B - Precise Answer ✔✔D. All of the above (you need
many offspring to ensure the cross was successful)
