The best known, although not the most common, pattern of allele variation is the simple:
A) karyotype variation.
B) dominant-recessive gene pair.
C) chromosomal version.
D) germinal gene pair.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The dominant-recessive gene pair is the most commonly known pattern of allele variation, in which one allele is dominant and masks the expression of the recessive allele. This pattern is used to explain many inherited traits. The other options listed (karyotype variation, chromosomal version, and germinal gene pair) are not commonly used terms to describe patterns of allele variation.
