In one of his experiments with pea plants, Mendel observed that when a pure tall pea plant is crossed with a pure dwarf pea plant in the first generation, F1, only tall plants appear.
(a) What happens to the traits of the dwarf plants in this case?
(b) When the F1-generation plants were self-fertilised, he observed that in the plants of the second generation, F2, both tall plants and dwarf plants were present. Why it happened? Explain briefly.
How did Mendel interpret his results to show that traits may be dominant or recessive? Describe briefly.
A man with blood group A marries a woman with blood group O and their daughter has blood group O. Is this information enough to tell you which of the traits – blood group A or O – is dominant? Why or why not?
How did Mendel explain that it is possible that a trait is inherited but not expressed in an organism?
Mendel said that the characteristics or traits of organisms are carried from one generation to the next by internal factors which occur in pairs. What is the modern name for these factors?
State whether the following statement is true or false :
The sex of an infant is not a case of inheritance of characteristics.
Name the first scientist who studied the inheritance of traits from one generation to the next.
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.
State Mendel's second law of inheritance.
How do Mendel's experiments show that traits may be dominant or recessive?
How do Mendel's experiments show that traits are inherited independently?
The visible characteristic in an organism is known as :
(a) prototype
(b) stereotype
(c) phenotype
(d) genotype
A person first crossed pure-bred pea plants having round-yellow seeds with pure-bred pea plants having wrinkled-green seeds and found that only A-B type of seeds were produced in the F1 generation. When F1generation pea plants having A-B type of seeds were cross-bred by self-pollination, then in addition to the original round-yellow and wrinkled-green seeds, two new varieties A-D and C-B type of seeds were also obtained.
(a) What are A-B type of seeds?
(b) State whether A and B are dominant traits or recessive traits.
(c) What are A-D type of seeds?
(d) What are C-B type of seeds?
(c) Out of A-B and A-D types of seeds, which one will be produced in (i) minimum numbers, and (ii) maximum numbers, in the F2 generation?
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 the mechanism of hereditary changes.
Hereditary characters are transferred from parents to offspring by ______ hence they are said to be structural and functional units of heredity.
Why are the traits acquired during the life time of an individual not inherited? Explain.
In human males all the chromosomes are paired perfectly except one. This/these unpaired chromosome is/are
