Only one allele of that gene. remember, meiosis halves the genetic material so that in sperm and egg there is a haploid count and only half the genetic material is passed on to the children; one half from each parent is is proper in sexually reproducing species. ( generally )

two

Tt TT or tt are the genotypes

but the alleles are the big T (dominant) and the little t (recessive)Note: this is just one parent, there are several combinations

How many alleles are usually in the gene pool for each trait?

Each gene has a dominate and recessive allele, so there are two types of alleles in each gene. The dominate allele is stronger than the recessive allele unless there are two recessive alleles.

How many allels per gene are there in each stage of meiosis?

there are the same number of alleles per gene in each stage of meiosis since the number of alleles per gene only tells the possible differences in a gene, such as the alleles for blue, green, and brown eyes being the possible traits to be combined.

An individual Thoroughbred cannot have more than two different alleles for each gene locus, one on each chromosome. How many alleles are available at a certain gene locus is variable based on what the gene controls and how many alleles are available and their frequency in the population.
