A) each gamete will contain either a seed-color allele or a seed-shape allele, but not both.
B) a gamete that contains dominant allele for seed color must also contain the dominant allele for seed shape.
C) a gamete that contains dominant allele for seed color must also contain the recessive allele for seed shape.
D) a gamete that contains the dominant allele for seed color is equally likely to contain the dominant or the recessive allele for seed shape.
E) possible gamete genotypes are AB or ab; each is equally likely to occur.
