What does the principle of segregation in genetics state?
| 1. | Alleles separate so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene. |
| 2. | Genes for different traits can segregate independently during the formation of gametes. |
| 3. | Each allele in a pair segregates into a different sex chromosome. |
| 4. | Phenotypes segregate during gamete formation, leading to genetic variation. |

Consider the given two statements:
| Assertion (A): | The strength of linkage between two genes is directly proportional to the distance between them on the chromosome. |
| Reason (R): | Genes that are farther apart are less likely to be separated by recombination. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False, (R) is False. |

Why is the father responsible for determining the sex of the child?
| 1. | Because the father's sperm determines the zygote's sex chromosome composition. |
| 2. | Because the father's genetic material activates sex-determining genes. |
| 3. | Because the mother always provides an X chromosome. |
| 4. | Because the father's phenotype influences the child's sex. |

In honey bees, the sex of an individual is determined by the number of chromosome sets it possesses. Which of the following scenarios would most likely disrupt normal sex determination in a honey bee population?
| 1. | A mutation in the queen bee that causes her to lay diploid eggs that develop without fertilization. |
| 2. | Increased production of royal jelly, leading to the development of more queen bees. |
| 3. | A mutation in drone bees that allows them to produce sperm with a different chromosome count. |
| 4. | Introduction of a new species of bee that competes for the same food sources |
