Assertion : A gene may have several alleomorphs.
Reason : Wild from can mutate in more than one ways.

Options

A. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reasons is a correct explanation of the assertion
B. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
C. If the assertion is true but the reson is false
D. If both the assertion and reason are false

Answer

A

Explanation

According to Mendel's concept of inheritance each gene had two alternative forms or allelomorphs, one being dominant and the other recessive. Practically the wild form can mutate once again to give rise to another mutant form. Therefore a gene can have more than two allelomorphs. these allelomorphs make a series of multiple alleles.
