Keeping in view Mendel's law of Segregation, if tall plants were crossed with short heighted plants, then which of the following best describes the F1 Progeny?
Correct answer: B. Heterozygous and tall heighted
- A. Homozygous and tall heightened
- B. Heterozygous and tall heighted
- C. Homozygous and short heightened
- D. Heterozygous and short heighted
Explanation
He called it first parental generation (Pi). Their offspring were called Fi or first filial generation. All Fi offspring were tall like one of the parents. Short height phenotype did not appear at all. Tall dominated short

About Inheritance
Mendel's laws explain segregation, independent assortment and the prediction of genetic ratios using alleles, genotypes and phenotypes. The chapter also covers linked genes, recombination and crossing over during meiosis, then applies pedigree reasoning to X-linked recessive traits, which show different inheritance patterns in males and females.
