The inheritance of genetic traits from parents to children follows predictable rules. Knowing that each parent contributes genes equally to each child, what determines an inherited trait such as eye color? Select one: a. Only the interaction between dominant genes. b. Only the interaction between recessive genes. c. The interaction between dominant and recessive genes does not determine inherited traits. d. The interaction between dominant and recessive genes.

The correct answer is - D. The interaction between dominant and recessive genes.

Explanation:

The inheritance of genetic traits come from both parents and based of their gene it can be predicted what traits might found in the offspring. There two types of traits of a single gene, known as alleles. These alleles can be dominant which means they can mask the effect of another allele if present together. The allele that get masked by the dominant allele called the recessive allele. The interaction of both recessive and dominant alleles determines an inherited trait such as eye color.

they fuse to form they have half as many chromosomes as a somatic cell of the same individual. b
