Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does the Law of Segregation state?

  • Alleles separate during gamete formation
  • Alleles assort independently
  • Dominant alleles always express

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how gametes are formed in meiosis.

Question 2

True or False: The Law of Dominance states that recessive traits are always expressed.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember how dominant and recessive traits interact.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a population of pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant over white flowers (p). If a homozygous purple flower is crossed with a homozygous white flower, what are the phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring? What would happen if two heterozygous purple flowers were crossed?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use Punnett squares to visualize the crossings.

Question 2

A pea plant has the genotype AaBb, where A and a represent one trait and B and b another. Determine the possible gametes produced from this genotype and explain your reasoning.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how you can mix and match the alleles from both traits.
