Suppose the three non-linked autosomal genes and control coat colour in an animal and the dominants alleles and are responsible for dark colour and the recessive alleles and are responsible for light colour. If a cross between a male of genotype and a female of genotype produces offsprings in the -generation, how many of them are likely to be of the parental genotype?

A plant with genotype AABBCC is crossed with another plant with aabbcc genotype. How many different genotypes of pollens is possible in an plant if these three loci follow an independent assortment?
EASY
How many types of gametes can be produced by individual with the genotype AAbb?
MEDIUM
Identify which one of the following is a test cross.
MEDIUM
Match the following lists:
| List - I | List - II | ||
| (A) | Back cross | It is the genetic make up of an individual. | |
| (B) | Test cross | (II) | An individual is having two different alleles for a single character. Consequently, it will produce two different types of gametes with reference to a gene. |
| (C) | Heterozygote | (III) | An individual is having two similar or identical alleles for a single character. Hence, it will produce only one kind of gametes with reference to a gene. |
| (D) | Homozygote | (IV) | If the progeny are mated back to one of their parents. |
| (V) | The cross between progeny (or heterozygotes) and their recessive homozygous parent. |
