A pea plant is heterozygous (Aa) for seed color and heterozygous (Bb) for seed shape. According to Mendel's principle of independent assortment:

Question

A. each gamete will have either a seed color
allele or a seed shape allele.
B. a gamete that receives the dominant allele
for seed color will also receive the dominant
allele for seed shape 100% of the time.
C. a gamete that receives the dominant allele
for seed color is equally likely to receive the
dominant allele for seed shape as it is the
recessive allele for seed shape.
D. possible gamete phenotypes are Aa, Bb,
AB, and ab; each is equally likely to occur.
E. possible gamete phenotypes are AB or ab;
each is equally likely to occur.
