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.

What will be set of genes present in the F1 generation?

Give a reason why only tall plants are observed in F1 progeny.

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 self-pollinated, 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.

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.

State reasons for Myopia. With the help of ray diagrams, show the:

1. image formation by a myopic eye, and
2. correction of myopia using an appropriate lens.

A person is unable to see clearly a poster fixed on a distant wall. He however sees it clearly when standing at a distance of about 2 m from the wall.

1. Draw ray diagram to show the formation of image by his eye lens when he is far away from the wall.
2. List two possible reasons of this defect of vision.
3. Draw ray diagram to show the correction of this defect using appropriate lens.

Observe the following diagram and answer questions following it: 

1. Identify the defect of vision shown.
2. List its two causes.
3. Name the type of lens used for the correction of this defect.

Define the following terms in the context of a diverging mirror:

1. Principal focus
2. Focal length

Draw a labelled ray diagram to illustrate your answer.
