Question 8 (6 points) Mendel's Second Law (Dominance/recessivity) is important because it indicates which of the following? Alleles are not altered, even if they are recessive, and so can reappear in subsequent generations. Recessive alleles only create mutant phenotypes if they are heterozygous. Recessive alleles only create mutant phenotypes if they are homozygous. In general, if an allele is defective and unable to make a protein or perform its function, it can result in a phenotype that alters the structure or function of an organism. Some genes only require one copy to produce a wild-type phenotype. Recessive alleles only create mutant phenotypes if they are hemizygous. Question 14 (5 points) Explain the relationship between Mendel's Third Law (that of "independent assortment") and Meiosis.
