Which of the following statements about dominant inheritance is false: (3pts) ? there are few syndromes of this nature because most affected individuals die before they can reproduce ? a heterozygote would be normal ? a homozygous recessive individual would be normal ? there is no carrier state

Which of the following statements is FALSE? Matings between individuals with dominant phenotypes cannot produce offspring with recessive phenotypes. Individuals with the same phenotype might have different genotypes. A dominant allele masks the expression of a recessive allele. Matings between individuals with recessive phenotypes usually do not produce offspring with dominant phenotypes. Question 9 (1 point): A cross between two brown dogs produced 9 brown pups and 3 yellow pups. Brown coat color is dominant to yellow, and therefore: Select an Option: one brown parent was heterozygous; both brown parents were heterozygous; both parents were homozygous; one brown parent was homozygous; brown pups are more viable.

Which of the following statements is false when referring to complete dominance? Parents with recessive phenotypes cannot produce offspring with dominant phenotypes Heterozygotes have one dominant and one recessive allele Parents with dominant phenotypes cannot produce offspring with recessive phenotypes Individuals with the same phenotype may have different genotypes
