Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1. yes, sex is also a character or a trait.
2. it has two contrasting characters male and female.
3. male character is represented by a pair of allosomes 'XY' (heterozygous).
4. In this, we can condieer y as dominant and X as recessive.
5. In this recessive character is expressed only when it is homozygous recessive. i.e., female.
6. Homozygous dominant is not existing as reproduction occurs between male (heterozygous dominant XY) and female (homozyygous recessive XX) only.
7. As X is not exhibiting its nature when y is present along with it, it follows Mendel's law of dominance.
