A common test to find the genotype of a hybrid is by

  • crossing of one F2 progeny with male parent

  • crossing of one F2 progeny with female parent

  • studying the sexual behaviour of F1 progenies

  • studying the sexual behaviour of F1 progenies


D.

studying the sexual behaviour of F1 progenies

Test cross, crossing of F1 progeny to the recessive parent is used to find the genotype of the progeny.

A human male produces sperms with the genotypes AB, Ab, aB, and ab pertaining to two diallelic characters in equal proportions. What is the corresponding genotype of this person?

  • AaBb

  • AaBB

  • AABb

  • AABb


Two genes R and Y are located very close on the chromosomal linkage map of a maize plant. When RRYY and rryy genotypes are hybridised, the F2 segregation will show:

  • higher number of the recombinant types.

  • segregation in the expected 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio

  • segregation in 3 : 1 ratio

  • segregation in 3 : 1 ratio


Haploids are more suitable for mutation studies than the diploids. This is because 

  • Haploids are reproductively more stable than diploids

  • mutagens penetrate in haploids more effectively than is diploids

  • haploids are more abundant in nature than diploids

  • haploids are more abundant in nature than diploids


Inheritance of skin colour in humans is an example of

  • chromosomal aberration

  • point mutation

  • polygenic inheritance

  • polygenic inheritance
