The idea that one form of a trait comes from each parent explains what?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Offspring can have two copies of information for a trait
In sexual reproduction, the offspring receives genetic information from both parents. For many traits, one allele or form is contributed by the mother and another by the father, producing a pair of alleles in the offspring. Thus, option A is correct. The other options wrongly exclude one parent or deny the presence of genetic information. Dominant and recessive relationships may determine which form is expressed.
