Question

How many phenotypes and genotypes respectively are possible in F2 generation it, a character such as skin colour in human is controlled by 3 pairs of polygenes?
1.13,729
2. 64, 729
3. 7, 27
4.7, 12​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The number of genotypes in F

2

generation is given by the formula N2 where 'N' represents the number of genes.

Here, N=4 hence going by the formula we get the number of genotypes as 16.

So, the correct option is '16'.
