When Mendel self-hybridized F1 progeny of a dihybrid cross between pure Yellow Round seeded plants and Green Wrinkled plants, he observed that yellow and green colour segregated in a ratio of:

1. 1 : 1 2. 3 : 1
3. 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 4. 1 : 2 : 1

Using the genotypic symbols Y for dominant yellow seed colour and y for recessive green seed colour, R for round shaped seeds and r for wrinkled seed shape, when a plant with genotype RrYy is self-hybridized, the proportion of progeny with yellow seeds is expected to be:
1. 9/16
2. 3/16
3. 3/4
4. 1/4

Regarding the law of independent assortment:
Statement I: Because of independent assortment and dominance, the 9:3:3:1 dihybrid phenotypic ratio can be collapsed into two 3:1 ratios, characteristic of any monohybrid cross that follows a dominant and recessive pattern.
Statement II: The law of independent assortment also indicates that a cross between yellow, wrinkled (YYrr) and green, round (yyRR) parents would yield the same F1 and F2 offspring as in the YYRR x yyrr cross.
1. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
3. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct
4. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect
