1.  Sutton and Boveri 

2.  Thomas Hunt Morgan

3.  de Vries

4.  Mendal 

In human ABO group system ________ different alleles allow the possibility of _______ different types of genotypes in population.

1.  3, 4

2.  2, 4

The phenotype of an individual may be affected if the modified allele produces

A.  The normal/less efficient enzyme

B.  No enzyme at all

C.  A non-functional enzyme

1.  Only A is correct 

2.  Only C & A are correct

3.  Only B is correct

4.  B & C are correct 

Ability of a gene to have multiple phenotypic effects is known as

1.  Co-dominance 

2.  Pleiotropy

3.  Multiple allelism

4.  Incomplete dominance 

Morgan and his group observed when the two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combinations were much higher than the non-parental type, this is due to

1.  Independent assortment 

2.  Linkage

3.  Crossing over

4.  Competence

1.  1/2

2.  3/4

3.  1/3

4.  1/4
