Assume that a parent has the genotype aabb. the a and the b genes are independently assorting. (the genotype can also be written a/a; b/b). what gametes will this aabb individual produce?

AB, Ab, aB, ab

Explanation:

According to the law of independent assortment two genes separate differently from each other during gamete formation process. This means that the gametes have equal probability of receiving each combination of the alleles.

Here, two genes "A" and "B" are present in heterozygous AaBb genotype.  They assort independently of each other. So, the combinations of A and B would result into four types of gametes:

AaBb = AB

            Ab

            aB

            ab

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
