Which of the following statements best explains why dominant alleles that cause lethal disorders are less common than recessive alleles that cause lethal disorders?
◦ The presence of a lethal dominant allele causes sterility.
◦ Lethal disorders caused by dominant alleles are usually more severe than lethal disorders caused by recessive alleles.
◦ Unlike lethal disorders caused by recessive alleles, lethal disorders caused by dominant alleles usually cause the death of the embryo.
◦ Most individuals carrying a lethal dominant allele have the disorder and die before they reproduce, whereas individuals carrying a lethal recessive allele are more likely to be healthy and reproduce.
