A child has blood group O. If the father has blood group A and the mother has blood group B, work out the genotypes of the parents and the possible genotypes of the other offspring.

उत्तर
If the father has blood group A, i.e., IAIA (homozygous), and the mother has blood group B, i.e., IBIB (homozygous), all offspring will have blood group AB (IAlB) rather than blood group O.

A child has blood group O only if both parents are heterozygous, i.e., father IAIi and mother IBIi.

Therefore, the parents of a child with blood group O will have genotypes IAi and IBi. A side from O blood group offspring, the child could have one of three other blood groups. They are IAi (blood group A), IBi (blood group B), and IAIB (blood group AB).

In a monohybrid cross of plants with red and white flowered plants, Mendel got only red-flowered plants. On self-pollinating these F1 plants got both red and white flowered plants in 3:1 ratio. Explain the basis of using RR and rr symbols to represent the genotype of plants of parental generation.
In a plant tallness is dominant over dwarfness and red flower is dominant over white. Starting with the parents work out a dihybrid cross. What is standard dihybrid ratio? Do you think the values would deviate if the two genes in question are interacting with each other?
In a cross between red coloured and white coloured flowers, when plants with red coloured flowers of F1 generation were self pollinated, plants of F2 generation were obtained in which 75% of plants were with red flowers and 2.5% plants were with white flowers.
Explain the inheritance of traits in the above cross with the help of a flow chart only along with the ratio of plants obtained.
Assertion (A): In humans, if gene (B) is responsible for black eyes and gene (b) responsible for brown eyes, then the colour of eyes of the progeny having gene combination Bb, bb or BB will be black only.
Reason (R): The black colour of the eyes is a dominant trait.
