The law of segregation is based on the fact that :
1. The alleles do not show any blending.
2. There is random fertilization
3. Gametes are pure for the trait
4. The zygotes are diploid
Assertion(A): | Law of segregation is also called as the law of purity of gametes. |
Reason(R): | When the plant produces gametes, by the process of meiosis, the alleles of the gene separate or segregate from each other and only one allele is transmitted to a gamete. |
1. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
2. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A) |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A) |
Assuming independent assortment, the percent of progeny with genotype AABb from a cross AaBb X AaBb is expected to be:
1. | 7.5 | 2. | 15 |
3. | 12.5 | 4. | 30 |
