Question

Which of the following genotypes is completely different from the rest in respect of its phenotype—YYRR, yyRR, YYRr and YyRR?

WBBSE Class X Life Science 03 (a) Heredity 01 Mark 2025

Answer

yyRR

Explanation:

In dihybrid inheritance, YYRR, YYRr and YyRR all have at least one dominant allele Y and R each, so they express the same phenotype (yellow and round). yyRR has recessive yy for first character and therefore shows different phenotype (green and round).
