Assertion : Phenylketonuria is a recessive hereditary disease caused by the body’s failure to oxidize an amino acid phenylalanine to tyrosine, because of a defective enzyme.
Reason : It results in the presence of phenylalanine acid in the urine.
Assertion : In honey bee, life history shows natural and complete parthenogenesis.
Reason : In honey bee, both drones and workers are parthenogenetically developed.
A plant, on repeated self pollination, preserves the trait expressed for many generations. Such a plant is said to be:
(1) Panmictic
(2) Homologous
(3) Apomictic
(4) Pure line
The F1 progeny in monohybrid crosses by Mendel resembled:
1. The parent exhibiting dominant trait completely
2. The parent exhibiting recessive trait completely
3. The parent exhibiting dominant trait partly
4. The parent exhibiting recessive trait partly
In a true breeding the allelic pair of genes are
1. Homologous
2. Linked
3. Stable
4. Homozygous
A test cross is done to find out:
(1) Fitness of an organism
(2) Genotype of a plant expressing dominant phenotype
(3) The suitable parents for a Mendelian Cross
(4) The hidden genotypic ratio of F2 phenotypes
