In sex-influenced traits, what relationship between dominance and recessiveness occurs between the two sexes for heterozygous genotypes?
In sex-influenced traits, what relationship between dominance and recessiveness occurs between the two sexes for heterozygous genotypes?
- They produce different phenotypes in the same sex.
- They maintain the same dominant phenotype in both sexes.
- The dominance and recessive relationships of the alleles reverse themselves. (correct)
- They do not express any phenotype.
