Solution

The correct option is C Only one allele for each gene in the individual
Answer is option C i.e. "Only one allele for each gene in the individual"
In haploids, there is only one allele for each gene in the individual. This makes haploids better for mutation work because in them all mutations whether dominant or recessive are expressed.
