Question

In the haplodiploid genetic system, which pair of individuals is most closely rated?
A) Mother - grandson
B) Mother - daughter
C) Father - mother
D) Sister - sister
E) Cousin - cousin

Accepted Answer

In the haplodiploid system, sisters share, on average, 75% of their genes. This is because they receive all their father's genes (who is haploid) and share half of their mother's genes (who is diploid), making them more genetically similar to each other than to their parents or offspring.
