Answer:

A mating of two people of medium height (where three genes control height): AaBbCc x AaBbCc produce Seven distinct phenotypes determined by the number of genes inherited.

Option: (D)

Explanation:

  • Traits are the characters that we observe. When the parents AaBbCc and AaBbCc are crossed then AABBCC and aabbcc are two different dominant and recessive genomes seen in the offspring.
  • Offspring with AABBCC will be height whereas aabbcc will be dwarf. There will be offspring with different heights depending upon the dominant and recessive gene present in them.
  • Another genome produced are AABBCc/AaBBCC/AABbCC, next will have four dominant and 2 recessive, next will have 3 dominant and 3 recessive AaBbCc, next will have 2 dominant and 4 recessive, one dominant and five recessive. All together offspring produced will be 64
