If a heterozygous male with the genotype Ww is mated with a homozygous recessive female of genotype ww, there is a chance that of the offspring will be heterozygous.

A:25%

B:50%

C:100%

If a heterozygous male with the genotype Ww is mated with a homozygous recessive female of genotype ww, there is a chance that 50% of the offspring will be heterozygous.

If the heterozygous, Ww, is crossed with a homozygous dominant, WW, then the probability of having a homozygous. Recessive offspring is? 0%.

The correct answer is option B: "50%".

Explanation:

The classical Mendel's Law of Segregation states that each individual has two alleles, one that is passed from each parent. In this example the W gene has a W dominant allele and one w recessive allele. If a Ww heterozygous male is mated with a ww homozygous recessive female there is a 50% chance that the offspring will be heterozygous. This result considering that Gregor Mendel's rules dictate that the offspring's genotype of the aforementioned crossing will be 50% Ww and 50% ww.
