After analysis of results drawn from his experiments with pea plants, Mendel concluded:
| 1. | There is considerable genetic variation in garden peas. |
| 2. | Traits are inherited in discrete units, and are not the results of "blending." |
| 3. | Recessive genes occur more frequently in the F1 than do dominant ones. |
| 4. | Genes are composed of DNA. |

A dihybrid test cross leads to a frequency of recombinants of 50% in progeny. The most obvious conclusion will be:
| 1. | The two genes likely are located on different chromosomes. |
| 2. | All of the offspring have combinations of traits that match one of the two parents. |
| 3. | Abnormal meiosis has occurred. |
| 4. | Independent assortment is hindered. |
In a family, father and son express a sex-linked recessive trait. The mother is phenotypically normal. What is the probability that she might be a carrier for the trait?
