Read the following and answer any four questions: Prashant wanted to find the genotype of a pea plant bearing purple-coloured flowers in his kitchen garden. For this, he crossed purple - flowered plants with a white - flowered plant. As a result, all plants which were produced had purple flowers only. Upon selling these plants, 75 purple flower plants and 25 white flower plants were produced. Now, he can determine the genotype of a purple - flowered plant by crossing it with a white - flowered plant. 1. Which of the following cannot be derived from the crosses done by Prashant? a. Mendel’s law of segregation b. Mendel’s law of dominance c. Mendel’s law of independent assortment d. Both Mendel’s law of segregation and Mendel’s law of independent assortment 2. To determine the genotype of a purple flowered plant, Prashant crossed this plant with a white flowered plant. This cross represents a a. test cross b. dihybrid cross c. reciprocal cross d. trihybrid cross 3. In white flowered plant, allele is expressed in a. heterozygous condition only b. homozygous condition only c. Fଷ generation d. both homozygous and heterozygous condition. 4. The character, i.e., purple colour of the flowers that appeared in the first filial generation is called a. recessive character b. dominant character c. holandric character d. lethal character. 5. Assertion (A): A geneticist crossed two plants and he obtained 50% purple flowered plants and 50% white flowered plants. Reasons (R): Purple coloured flower plant might be heterozygous. a. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. b. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. c. A is true but R is false. d. Both A and R are false.6. In Antirrhinum (dog flower), the phenotypic ratio in F2generation for the inheritance of flower colour would be a. 3 : 1 b. 1 : 2 : 1 c. 1 : 1 d. 2: 1 [4

A pea plant with purple flowers of unknown genotype is test crossed with a white-flowered pea plant (ff), and half of the offspring have purple flowers and half the offspring have white flowers. What is the genotype of the purple flower?

In peas, purple flower colour is determined by the dominant P allele and white flower colour is determined by the recessive p allele. Purple-flowered PP plants were crossed with white-flowered pp plants. What is the genotype of the gametes produced by the white-flowered plants?Question 3Select one:a.P (big P)b.p (little p)c.¾ P, ¼ pd.½ P and ½ pClear my choice

In the garden peas of one pair of alleles controls the height of theplant and a second pair of alleles controls flower colour. Theallele for tall (T) is dominant to the allele for dwarf (t) and theallele for purple flower colour (P) is dominant to the allele forwhite (p).a. A tall plant with purple flowers crossed with a dwarf plant withwhite flowers produced 50% tall, purple and 50% tall, whiteprogeny. What is the genotype of the parents?b. A tall plant with white flowers crossed with a dwarf plant withpurple flowers produced 25% tall purple, 25% tall white, 25%dwarf purple and 25% dwarf white individuals. What is thegenotype of the parents?

In peas, purple flower colour is determined by the dominant P allele and white flower colour is determined by the recessive p allele. If purple-flowered PP plants are crossed with white-flowered pp plants, the phenotype of the F1 progeny will be:Question 4Select one:a.white-floweredb.purple-floweredc.¾ purple-flowered : ¼ white floweredd.¼  purple-flowered : ¾ white flowered

In a garden of plants of the same species 705 plants have red flowers while 224 had white flowers (i) Work out the ratio of the red to white flowers (ii)Using letter R to represent the dominant gene, work out the cross between F1 offspring and a white flowered plant (iii)what is the genotypic ratio from the cross in(i) above
