उत्तर

Monohybrid cross: It is a cross where two forms of a single trait are crossed or hybridized.
Mendel performed this experiment on the pea plant. He crossed the true-breeding forms of tall and dwarf plants and obtained the hybrid progeny. This is called as first generation (F1) offspring plant to self-pollinate and produced the second generation (F2).

Differentiate between the following:

Homozygous and Heterozygous


Given below are the F2 – phenotypic ratios of two independently carried monohybrid crosses :
(i) 1 : 2 : 1
(ii) 3 : 1
Mention what does each ratio suggest.


Explain Mendel’s monohybrid progeny with the help of any one cross.


Name the conditions when both the alleles are identical?


A garden pea plant produces axial white flowers. Another of the same species produced terminal violet flowers. Identify the dominant trait?


Pure-bred tall pea plants are first crossed with pure-bred dwarf pea plants. The pea plants obtained in the F1 generation are then selfed to produce F2 generation of pea plants.

Which type of plants was missing in the F1 generation but reappeared in the F2 generation?


When a tall plant with rounded seeds (TTRR) is grossed with a Dwarf plant with wrinkled seeds (ttrr) the F1 generation consists of tall plants with rounded seeds. How many types of gametes the F1 plant would produce?


A Monohybrid cross is ______


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.


Monohybrid crosses are useful in demonstrating which of the following laws of inheritance suggested by Mendel?
