Question
If one parent is heterozygous & the other is homozygous recessive, what is the percentage chance of offspring being heterozygous?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Cross: Heterozygous (Aa) x Homozygous recessive (aa). The Punnett square shows: Aa x aa -> 50% Aa (heterozygous) and 50% aa (homozygous recessive).
Hint
Do a Punnett square cross between Aa and aa. How many of the offspring are Aa?
