Inheritance in which only one trait is involved in a cross:
Correct answer: D. Both A and B
- A. Monohybrid cross
- B. Single trait inheritance
- C. Dihybrid cross
- D. Both A and B
Explanation
A monohybrid cross is a process of mating between two individuals with dominant genotypes, homozygous genotypes or alleles with hereditary characteristics. The monohybrid cross results into the phenotypes which have the opposite genetic traits from each other.

About Inheritance
Mendel's laws explain segregation, independent assortment and the prediction of genetic ratios using alleles, genotypes and phenotypes. The chapter also covers linked genes, recombination and crossing over during meiosis, then applies pedigree reasoning to X-linked recessive traits, which show different inheritance patterns in males and females.
