    Question

    ​In Mendel’s cross. a pure tall plant (TT) is crossed with a dwarf plant (t t) The Phenotypic ratio in generation is:​

    A.

    ​1 : 3​

    B.

    ​3 : 1​

    C.

    ​1 : 1​

    D.

    ​2 : 1​

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (B) 3 : 1.

    In Mendel's cross of a pure tall plant (TT) with a dwarf plant (tt), the phenotypic ratio in the F1 generation is 3:1.

    Here's why:

    1. Parental Generation:
      • Pure tall plant (TT)
      • Dwarf plant (tt)
    2. Gametes:
      • Tall plant (TT) produces gametes with the T allele.
      • Dwarf plant (tt) produces gametes with the t allele.
    3. F1 Generation:
      • All offspring in the F1 generation will be Tt (heterozygous).
      • Phenotypically, all F1 plants will be tall because the T allele (tall) is dominant over the t allele (dwarf).
    4. F2 Generation:
      • When F1 plants (Tt) are self-crossed, the following phenotypic ratio is observed in the F2 generation:
        • 3 Tall plants (TT, Tt, Tt)
        • 1 Dwarf plant (tt)

    Therefore, the phenotypic ratio in the F2 generation is 3:1 (tall:dwarf).
