The genotype of a plant showing the dominant phenotype can be determined by

(1) test cross

(2) dihybrid cross

(3) pedigree analysis

(4) back cross

ABO blood groups in humans are controlled by the gene I. It has three alleles — I^A, I^B and i. Since there are three different alleles, six different genotypes are possible. How many phenotypes can occur?

(1) Three

(2) One

(3) Four

(4) Two

Select the correct statement from the ones given below with respect to dihybrid cross.

(1) Tightly linked genes on the same chromosome show higher recombinations

(2) Genes far apart on the same chromosome show very few recombinations

(3) Genes loosely linked on the same chromosome show similar recombinations as the tightly linked ones

(4) Tightly linked genes on the same chromosome show very few recombinations.

Which one of the following symbols and its representation, used in human pedigree analysis is correct?

(1) = Marriage between relatives

(2) = Unaffected male

(3) = Unaffected female

(4) = Male affected

Study the pedigree chart given below

What does it show?

Select the incorrect statement from the following

(1) linkage is an exception to the principle of independent assortment in heredity

(2) galactosemia is an inborn error of metabolism

(3) small population size results in random genetic drift in a population

(4) baldness is a sex limited trait

Which one of the following condition in human is correctly matched with its chromosomal abnormality/linkage?

(1) Klinefelter's syndrome—44 autosomes + XXY

(2) Colourblindness —Y-linked

(3) Erythroblastosis foetalis— X-linked

(4) Down syndrome—44 autosomes + XO

A human male produces sperms with the genotypes AB, Ab, aB and ab pertaining to two diallelic characters in equal proportions. What is the corresponding genotype of this person ?

(1) AaBb

(2) AaBB

(3) AABb

(4) AABB

A common test to find the genotype or hybrid is by :

(1) crossing of one F₂ progeny with male parent

(2) crossing of one F₂ progeny with female parent

(3) studying the sexual behaviour of F₁ progenies

(4) crossing of one F₁ progeny with recessive parent

How many different kinds of gametes will be produced by a plant having the genotype AABbCC ?

(1) Three

(2) Four

(3) Nine

(4) Two
