What will be the appearance of (a) F1 and (b) F2 progenies when a
pure (homozygous) tall pea plant is crossed with a pure
(homozygous) dwarf pea plant?
Answers
Answer:
What will be the appearance of (a) F1 and (b) F2 progenies when a pure (homozygous) tall pea plant is crossed with a pure (homozygous) dwarf pea plant? In F1 generation all the plants will be heterozygous tall (Tt) .
Explanation:
If my answer helped you means please make my answer as brainliest answer friend!
(a) In the F1 generation, all the plants will be tall.
(b)The F2 generation, out of four plants, three will be tall and one dwarf.
Explanation:
In pea plant, when pure tall pea plant (TT) is crossed with pure short (tt) plant,
F1 generation will be all Tt (tall plant).
(Pure Tall) TT x tt (Pure short)
F1 generation Tt (All tall plant)
Self-pollination Tt x Tt
F2 generation TT Tt Tt tt
1 2 1
Thus, the ratio of pure tall plants (TT) to heterozygous breed tall plants (Tt) to pure short plants (tt) is 1:2:1.
