The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the two dominant independently assorting genes that react with each other, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Terms**: - We need to identify what "dominant independently assorting genes" means. Dominant genes are those that express their traits even in the presence of a recessive allele. Independently assorting genes are those that segregate independently during gamete formation. 2. **Identify the Interaction**: - The question states that these genes "react" with each other. This implies a specific type of interaction between the two genes. 3. **Explore the Options**: - The options provided are: - A) Collaborative genes - B) Complementary genes - C) Duplicate genes - D) Supplementary genes 4. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Collaborative Genes**: These genes work together to produce a specific function but do not necessarily interact in the way described. - **Complementary Genes**: These genes interact in such a way that the presence of both is necessary for the expression of a particular trait. This fits the description of the genes reacting with each other. - **Duplicate Genes**: These are genes that perform the same function but are located on different chromosomes. They do not interact in the same way as complementary genes. - **Supplementary Genes**: These genes enhance or modify the expression of another gene but are not the primary interacting genes. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **B) Complementary genes**, as they are the ones that react with each other in a way that requires both to express a specific trait. ### Final Answer: The two dominant independently assorting genes that react with each other are called **Complementary genes**.
