QQuestion

In which of the following crosses, will the F1 generation seed’s tall and dwarf traits appear in a 1:1 ratio?

(a) Tt x Tt

(b) TT x Tt

(c) TT x tt

(d) Tt x tt

Exam-ready answer 01 Mark

Answer

(d) Tt x tt

Explanation:

When a heterozygous tall plant (Tt) is crossed with a homozygous dwarf plant (tt), the F1 progeny splits as:

T t
t Tt tt
t Tt tt

Tall seed = 2

Short seed = 2

Ratio = Tall : Short = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
