Pairing and separation of a pair of chromosomes would lead to segregation of a pair of factors they carried. This conclusion was drawn by

(1) Walter Sutton

(2) Theodore Boveri

(3) both (1) and (2)

(4) Thomas Hunt Morgan

Chromosomal theory of inheritance is a combination of

(1) Knowledge of chromosomal segregation with Mendelian principle

(2) Knowledge of Dihybridcross with motion of chromosome

(3) Knowledge of Law of dominance with chromosomal appearance

(4) Knowledge of classical genetics with modern molecular biology

The behaviour of chromosomes and genes can be compared with each other is best explained by which of the following statement?

(1) occur in nucleus

(2) both segregate at the time of gamete formation leading to transmittance of complete pair to a gamete.

(3) Independent pairs( gene) or pair of chromosomes segregate independently of each other or of other pair.

(4) The two alleles of a gene pair are located on homologous site on homologous chromosomes.

The chromosome movement during meiosis have been worked out

(1) 1900

(2) 1902

(3) 1911

(4) 1930

Consider the following statement and find out the incorrect one:

(1) Advancement in Microscopy made the study of chromosomal behaviour possible.

(2) The two alleles of a gene pair are located on homologous site on homologous chromosomes.

(3) Experimental verification of chromosomal theory of Inheritance was done by T. H. Morgan et. Al.

(4) Morgan Chose Drosophila as an experimental animal because it has variations that can be seen with high power of microscope.

Linkage was described by Morgan in Drosophila. Which of the following combinations are correct?

(i) He hybridised yellow bodied, white-eyed females to brown-bodied, red eyed males and then intercrossed their F₁

(ii) The ratio of F₂ generation is same as that of 9:3:3:1 in this cross.

(iii) The parental combinations are observed more than recombinants.

(iv) According to Morgan Linkage was observed due to chemical association of genes.

(v) All the genes present on same chromosomes have same efficiency to link.

(1) (ii), (iv), (v)

(2) (i), (iii)

(3) (i), (iii), (v)

(4) (i) and (iv)

Two heterozygous round yellow seeded pea plants are intercrossed. In the progeny, the trait for seed shape will segregate in the ratio:

1.1 : 1

2.3 : 1

3.1 : 1 : 1 : 1

4.9 : 3 : 3 : 1

The mapping of genes on chromosome was attempted by

(1) T. H. Morgan
