प्रश्न
Differentiate between the following -
Homozygous and Heterozygous
उत्तर
| Homozygous | Heterozygous |
| It is pure for a trait and breeds true, producing homozygous individuals with similar characteristics. | A heterozygous individual is usually pure and generates offspring with diverse genotypes on selfing, such as TT, Tt, and tt on selfing of Tt individuals. |
| Both alleles of a trait, such as TT and tt, are similar. | It carries different alleles, such as Tt. |
| Homozygous individuals can carry either dominant or recessive alleles, but not both. | A heterozygous individual carries both dominant and recessive alleles. |
| It produces one type of gametes. | It creates two types of gametes. |
| It does not display excessive vigour. | Individuals can exhibit hybrid vigour, often known as heterosis. |

Differentiate between inherited and acquired characters. Give one example for each type.
Give reasons why acquired characters are not inherited.
When a tall plant with rounded seeds (TTRR) is grossed with a Dwarf plant with wrinkled seeds (ttrr) the F1 generation consists of tall plants with rounded seeds. How many types of gametes the F1 plant would produce?
Cross between hybrid and recessive parent:
In a monohybrid cross of plants with red and white flowered plants, Mendel got only red-flowered plants. On self-pollinating these F1 plants got both red and white flowered plants in 3:1 ratio. Explain the basis of using RR and rr symbols to represent the genotype of plants of parental generation.
In a cross between red coloured and white coloured flowers, when plants with red coloured flowers of F1 generation were self pollinated, plants of F2 generation were obtained in which 75% of plants were with red flowers and 2.5% plants were with white flowers.
Explain the inheritance of traits in the above cross with the help of a flow chart only along with the ratio of plants obtained.
Given below is a schematic representation of the inheritance of the shape of the seeds of garden peas. Answer the questions that follow:
- Which is the dominant and recessive allele of the trait?
- What does the ratio 3 : 1 in the F2 generation represent?
- State Mendel's Law of Dominance.
