Monohybrid cross focuses on the study of a single character in an organism. For eg: height in pea plants.
In pea plants, height is characterised by alleles T and t. T is and t is dwarf.
TT is tall homozygous (meaning two alleles of same type)
tt is dwarf - recessive character which appears only on combination of two recessive alleles.
When both are crossed, you get a hybrid Tt which is heterozygous dominant. This is F1 generation.
On selfing F1 generation, you get a mix of characters in the ratio 1 Tall homozygous : 2 Tall heterozygous :1 dwarf.
This is monohybrid cross.
