Question

Every Test Cross is Back Cross but not every back cross is test Cross-- Explain it...​

Answer 1

Answer:

Back cross is a cross of a hybrid with one of its parents or any individual genetically similar to its parent in order to achieve offspring with genetic identity closer to that of the parent whereas a test cross is a type of back cross between the recessive homozygote and F1 generation.

Explanation:

- Testcross is a crossing of a F1 hybrid with one of its recessive parent or individual with similar genetic makeup. - Backcross is a crossing of a hybrid with one of its parents or individual with similar genetic makeup. ... - Therefore, test cross is a backcross but back cross is not necessarily a test cross.
