Based on the law of independent assortment, which of the following genotypes can be donated by a parent with the genotype Rryy

The correct answer is O Ry and ry.
Explanation: The law of independent assortment states that genes for different traits are inherited independently of each other. The parent genotype Rryy can produce gametes that contain one allele from each of the gene pairs.
– From the alleles Rr, the possible alleles are R and r.
– From the alleles yy, the only allele available is y.
Thus, the possible combinations from Rryy are:
– R and y (Ry)
– r and y (ry)
So, the parent with the genotype Rryy can donate the gametes Ry and ry. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
