Mating between black rats of identical genotype produced offspring as follows: 14 cream colored, 47 black and 19 albino. This ratio can be explained if the pheneomenon exhibited here is:
1. Recessive epistasis
2. Polygenic inheritance
3. Multiple allelism
4. Incomplete penetrance
Identify the incorrect statement regarding test cross?
1. It is used to determine the genotype of an individual exhibiting a dominant phenotype.
2. The testcross parent is always homozygous recessive for all of the genes under consideration.
3. The purpose of the testcross is to discover how many different kinds of gametes are being produced by the individual whose genotype is in question.
4. A homozygous dominant individual will produce two types of progeny and a heterozygous individual will produce only one type of progeny.
What is the number of linkage groups in humans?
1. 22
2. 23
3. 24
4. 46
Assuming complete dominance
recessiveness and independent assortment,
the ratio of progeny with the genotypes AaBb,

AABb would respectively be:
1. 4:4:2:0
2. 4:2:4:2
3. 4:4:2:2
4. 4:4:2:1
