Gene S Controls the Sharpness of Spines in a Type

question 5

Multiple Choice

Gene S controls the sharpness of spines in a type of cactus. Cactuses with the dominant allele, S, have sharp spines, whereas homozygous recessive ss cactuses have dull spines. At the same time, a second gene, N, determines whether or not cactuses have spines. Homozygous recessive nn cactuses have no spines at all. If doubly heterozygous SsNn cactuses were allowed to self- pollinate, the F₂ would segregate in which of the following ratios?

• A) 3 sharp- spined:1 spineless
• B) 1 sharp- spined:1 dull- spined
• C) 9 sharp- spined:3 dull- spined:4 spineless
• D) 1 sharp- spined:1dull- spined:1 spineless
• E) 1 sharp- spined:2 dull- spined:1 spineless
