Question

In a plant, the shape of the leaves is determined by two genes, but one of the genes has three possible alleles. Why is this an exception to the basic two-factor genotype concept?

Options

A
    Because the total number of alleles for the two genes is more than four.
B
    Only the presence of three alleles for one gene makes it an exception.
C
    It's not an exception as long as the genes assort independently.
D
    The interaction between these two genes is complex.
