Question

A cross between Ft individual and a recessive parent is called test cross. (State whether the sentences is True or False)

Answer 1

True.

Crossing heterozygous individual with recessive parent is called test cross.

Answer 2

In order to determine the genotype of dominant trait in F2 generation, Mendel crossed the dominant trait with the recessive trait and termed such type of cross as test cross.

In this type of cross, instead of self-crossing the dominant trait obtained in the F2 generation is directly crossed with recessive parent trait.  

As the statement given in the question also supports the same concept it is consider as true.
