(a) Atrue breeding pea plant, homozygous for inflated green pods is crossed with another pea plant with constricted yellow pods (ffgg). What would be the phenotype and genotype of `F_1" and "F_2` generations ? Give the phenotype ratio of `F_2` generation.
(b) State the generalisation proposed by Mendel on the has 18 of the above mentioned cross.

(b) Based upon such observation on dihybrid crosses Mendel proposed a second set 0f generalisation that we call Mendel’s law of Independent Assortment. The law states that when two pairs of traits are combined in a hybrid segregation of one pair of characters is independent of other pair of characters.
