Pure tall plants are crossed with pure dwarf plants. In the F1 generation, all plants were tall. These tall plants of F1 generation were selfed and the ratio of tall to dwarf plants obtained was 3 : 1. This is called
dominance
inheritance
codominance
heredity
The trisomy for 21st chromosome is called
Down's syndrome
Turner's syndrome
Sickle cell anaemia
Klinfelter's syndrome
If root of a flowering plant has 24 chromosomes, then its gamete has how many chromosomes?
24
12
4
8
B.
12
The root cell of flowering plant is diploid (2n = 24) while the gamete is haploid, therefore, the number of chromosomes becomes 12 in the gamete.
The cells of stem, leaf and somatic cells of flower are diploid, therefore, they contain the chromosome number 2n = 24.
Balbiani rings are the structural features of
allosomes
polytene chromosomes
autosomes
Lampbrush chromosomes
X- linked recessive gene is
always expressed in male
always expressed in femlae
lethal
sub- lethal
1 : 2 : 1 phenotypic and genotypic ratio is found in
complementary genes
blending inheritance
multiple alleles
pseudo alleles
