Pure tall plants are crossed with pure dwarf plants. In the F₁ generation, all plants were tall. These tall plants of F₁ generation were selfed and the ratio of tall to dwarf plants obtained was 3 : 1. This is called

• dominance

• codominance

• heredity

Chromosome complement with 2n - 1 is called

• monosomy

• nullisomy

• trisomy

• tetrasomy
