Biology 1108 Exam 3 1. An important result from the monohybrid cross experiments was that phenotypes appeared in predictable ratios, indicating that only one copy of each gene passes from a parent to its offspring. This is now referred to as: a. Sympatric speciation b. The Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium c. The Law of Independent Assortment d. The Law of Segregation e. The Theory of Natural Selection 2. In Mendel's crosses, he found that it was possible to recover traits that were present i...
