An individual who produces as much melaninas humanly possible has genotype MMLLNN.That person’s phenotype would be to have verydark skin, so brown as to almost appear black.

During meiosis, the diploid (2n) genotype, MMLLNN,Is reduced to the haploid genotype. As the alleles aresegregated from each other, the only possibility for thesperm or egg is MLN.

+

The union of one genetic half-cell, the sperm, with the other genetic half-cell, the egg, results in one genetically whole cell, the zygote

Add the alleles from the sperm (MLN) and the alleles from the egg (MLN) to determine the genotype of the zygote (and

the new individual), (MMLLNN)

An individual who produces as little melaninas humanly possible has genotype mmllnn.That person’s phenotype would be to have verylight skin, so as to appear so white that the pinkof the blood shows through.

During meiosis, the diploid (2n) genotype, mmllnnis reduced to the haploid genotype. As the alleles aresegregated from each other, the only possibility for thesperm or egg is mln.

During meiosis, the diploid (2n) genotype, MmLlNnis reduced to the haploid genotype. As the allelessegregate and assortindependently, maximumdiversity results.
