Question

When a character is controlled by one gene with eight alleles in the population, number of allele/ alleles in a gamete to represent the character will be
1) 4
2) 1
3) 8
4) 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

one is correct answer....

Answer 2

Option 2 is the correct answer.

• Every gamete comprises a sole copy of every chromosome, and every chromosome comprises one allele for each gene. Accordingly, every allele for a provided gene is situated in a different gamete.
• Numerous alleles are the considerable structures of a gene which happen on a similar gene locus but are allocated in various organisms in the gene pool with an organism, which transmits only two alleles and the gamete possesses only one allele.
• Thus multiple allelism, an individual will possess only two alleles because an individual is generated from a zygote which is the outcome of the fusion of sperm that's holding up a father pair of(n)haploid chromosomes and an egg holding up a mother pair of haploid chromosomes.

Hence option 2 is the correct answer.
