How do Mendel’s experiments show that the traits may be dominant or recessive?
How do Mendel's experiment show that traits are inherited independently?
How did Mendel interpret his results to show that traits may be dominant or recessive? Describe briefly.
What is a gene?
List any two contrasting characters other than height that Mendel used in his experiments in pea plants.
Mendel in one of his experiments with pea plants crossed a variety having round seed with one having wrinkled seeds. Write his observations, giving reasons, of F1 and F2 progeny
List any two contrasting characters other than roundness of pea plants that Mendel used in his experiments with pea plants.
A Mendelian experiment consisted of breeding tall pea plants bearing violet flowers with short pea plants bearing white flowers. The progeny all bore violet flowers, but almost half of them were short. This suggests that the genetic make-up of the tall parent can be depicted as:
A study found that children with light-coloured eyes are likely to have parents with light-coloured eyes. On this basis, can we say anything about whether the light eye colour trait is dominant or recessive? Why or why not?
How did Mendel explain that it is possible that a trait is inherited but not expressed in an organism?
The gene for red hair is recessive to the gene for black hair. What will be the hair colour of a person if he inherits a gene for red hair from his mother and a gene for black hair from his father?
A man having blood group O marries a woman having blood group B and they have a daughter. What will be the blood group of the daughter?
It it an example of monohybrid cross or dihybrid cross?
What is the genotype of (i) dwarf plants, and (ii) tall plants, whose parental cross always produces tall offspring?
Gregor Mendel's first law of genetics states "Of a pair of contrasted characters, only one can be represented in a gamete by its internal 'factor' State where these factors are found in gametes.
What are the units of heredity.
In order to ensure that he had pure-breeding plants for his experiments, Mendel :
(a) cross-fertilised each variety with each other
(b) let each variety self fertilise for several generations
(c) removed the female parts of the plants
(d) removed the male parts of the plants.
In the human blood grouping, the four basic blood types are type A, type B, type AB, and type O. The blood proteins A and B are :
(a) simple dominant and recessive traits
(b) incomplete dominant traits
(c) codominant traits
(d) sex-linked traits
Select the statements that describe characteristics of genes :
(i) genes are specific sequences of bases in a DNA molecule.
(ii) a gene does not code for proteins.
(iii) in individuals of a given species, a specific gene is located on a particular chromosome.
(iv) each chromosome has only one gene..
A trait in an organism is influenced by ______
Pure-bred tall pea plants are first crossed with pure-bred dwarf pea plants. The pea plants obtained in F1generation are then cross-bred to produce F2 generation of pea plants.
(a) What do the plants of F1 generation look like?
(b) What is the ratio of tall plants to dwarf plants in F2 generation?
(c) Which type of plants were missing in F1 generation but reappeared in F2 generation?
A red-haired woman marries a brown-haired man, and all the children are brown haired. Explain this genetically.
The farmers have been cultivating a food plant X for over two thousand years and have produced as many as five entirely different looking vegetables A, B, C, D and E from it.
(a) What could the plant X be?
(b) What are A, B, C, D and E?
(c) What is the process of evolution involved in this example known as?
List two differences in tabular form between dominant trait and recessive traits. What percentage/proportion of the plants in the F2 generation/progeny were round, in Mendel's cross between round and wrinkled pea plants?
Explain Mendel’s law of independent inheritance. Give one example.
Answer the following question.
Why are the traits acquired during the life-time-of-an individual not inherited? Explain.
What is genetics?
____________ refers to the transmission of genetic information from parental generation to next generation.
In humans, if gene B gives brown eyes and gene b gives blue eyes, what will be the colour of eyes of the persons having combinations
(i) Bb and (ii) BB?
What will be the number of chromosomes present in each gamete produced by the plants if the palisade cells of a species of the plant contain 28 chromosomes in all?
If a round, green seeded pea plant (RR yy) is crossed with wrinkled, yellow seeded pea plant, (rr YY) the seeds produced in F1 generation are
In human males all the chromosomes are paired perfectly except one. This/these unpaired chromosome is/are
- large chromosome
- small chromosome
- Y-chromosome
- X-chromosome
If a tall pea plant is crossed with a pure dwarf pea plant then, what percentage of F1 and F2 generation respectively will be tall?
