उत्तर

size of body

Explanation -

The size of the body of an organisms increases or decreases based on the availability of the food and results from the changes in the non-reproductive tissues. So, these changes cannot be passed on to the next generation. So, it is an acquired character.

A homozygous Tall plant (T) bearing red coloured (R) flowers is crossed with a homozygous dwarf plant (t) bearing white flowers (r):
(1) Give the Genotype and Phenotype of the F2 generation.
(2) Give the possible combinations of the gametes that can be obtained from the F2 hybrid.
(3) Give the dihybrid ratio and the phenotype of the offsprings of the F2 generation when two plants of the F1 generation above are crossed.


Complete the following sentence with appropriate word:

_______ is the ratio of dihybrid cross.


Explain with an example the inheritance of the dihybrid cross. How is it different from monohybrid cross?


Under which conditions does the law of independent assortment hold good and why?


In pea plants, yellow seeds are dominant to green. If a heterozygous yellow seed pant is crossed with a green seeded plant, what ratio of yellow and green seeded plants would you expect in the F1 generation?


Select the correct statement from the ones given below with respect to dihydrid cross


In a test cross involving F1 dihybrid flies, more parental type offspring were produced than the recombination type offspring. This indicates


Name the seven contrasting traits of Mendel.


What are the reasons for Mendel’s successes in his breeding experiment?


Explain the law of dominance in a monohybrid cross.


In a testcross involving F1 dihybrid flies, more parental-type offspring were produced than the recombinant-type offspring. This indicates ______.


Mendel’s last law is ______.


In a dihybrid cross AABB x aabb, F2 progeny of AABB, AABb, AaBB and AaBb occurs in the ratio of ______.


In a dihybrid cross, F2 phenotypic ratio is 13 : 3. It is case of ______.


Each gamete carry ______.


Assertion: When the two genes in a dihybrid cross are situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combinations is much higher than the nonparental type.

Reason: Higher parental gene combinations can be attributed to crossing over between two genes.


Two pea plants - one with round yellow seeds (RRYY) and another with wrinkled green (rryy) seeds produce F1 progeny that have round, yellow (RrYy) seeds.

When F1 plants are self-pollinated, which new combination of characters is expected in F2 progeny? How many seeds with these new combinations of characters will be produced when a total 160 seeds are produced in F2 generation? Explain with reason.


Sahil performed an experiment to study the inheritance pattern of genes. He crossed tall pea plants (TT) with short pea plants (tt) and obtained all tall plants in F1 generation.

When F1 plants were cross-pollinated with plants having tt genes, a total of 800 plants were produced. How many of these would be tall, medium height or short plants? Give the genotype of F2 generation.
