Why did the offspring look different than their parents and siblings in the Modeling Offspring Lab?

• each offspring received one allele from each parent so there were many possible combinations of alleles causing different traits

• because they all received the same alleles from one parent

• beacause they all received different alleles from one parent

• because the alleles caused the trait to blend such as a brown allele and a blonde allele created a dirty blonde-haired offspring
