A male with horns is mated with a heterozygous female
without horns. What percentage of the offspring would
be expected to have horns? (1 point)

A. 25%

B. 50%

C. 75%

D. 100%


Sagot :

50%. You would set up a punnett square and find that the female would pass the dominant allele to 2 of 4 offspring.
