Important Questions on Classical Genetics
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. |
The correct match is:
