Which statement describes mendel’s hypotheses regarding gametes?
a. a gamete carries two genes for a trait.
b. a gamete carries one allele for a gene.
c. a gamete can carry multiple alleles for a trait.
d. some gametes are dominant and some are recessive.

The principle of segregation given by Gregor Mendel based on his experiments with the pea plants states that alleles of a gene for any trait are segregated during the formation of the gametes. Therefore, a gamete contains only one allele of a gene. When the male and female gamete combines during fertilization, the two alleles (one from each gamete) combine to form the gene.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option B - A gamete carries one allele for a gene'.

do yall know the answer?
