BOTANY

(31) Answer : (2)

Solution:
Wrinkled and green seed are recessive traits of pea plant and it can only be observed in the homozygous
condition.
(32) Answer : (1)
Solution:
Gregor Mendel conducted hybridisation experiment on garden pea for 7 years. This period was 1856 – 1863
(33) Answer : (2)
Solution:
A single gene product can produce more than one effect when there is interrelationship between the metabolic
pathways that contribute towards different phenotypes.
In pleiotropy, a single gene product may produce more than one effect or control several phenotypes
depending on its position.
(34) Answer : (2)
Solution:
Mendel selected 14 true-breeding pea plant varieties, as pairs which were similar except for one character
with contrasting traits.
(35) Answer : (1)

Solution:
In a typical Mendelian monohybrid test cross, the genotypic and phenotypic ratios in F2 generation are the
same that is 1 : 1.
(37) Answer : (4)
Solution:
Pure lines are formed by continuous selfing.
Pure lines do not have hybrid genotypes.

Solution:
The phenotypic ratio of individuals in F2 generation that are produced due to independent assortment of
characters in Mendel’s dihybrid cross on pea plant is 1 : 1.
(41) Answer : (3)
Solution:
Out of 16 seeds, the seeds with genotype RRyy is only one in F2 generation, i.e., the probability is 1/16.

(43) Answer : (1)

Solution:
In test cross, dominant phenotype of F1 generation is crossed with recessive parental type.

(44) Answer : (4)

Solution:
Mendel used only two floral features that are flower position and flower colour.
Seed shape and its colour, pod shape and its colour were also taken.

Hint:
Withdrawal of penis is a natural contraceptive method.
Solution:
Coitus interruptus (withdrawal method) is a natural method of contraception, in which withdrawal of penis is
ensured before ejaculation. Surgical method or sterilisation procedure involves vasectomy or tubectomy.
