The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we will analyze each statement one by one and determine whether they are true or false. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement (i) **Statement (i)**: Percentage of homozygous dominant individuals obtained by selfing Aa individuals is 25%. - **Selfing Aa individuals** means crossing two heterozygous individuals (Aa x Aa). - The possible gametes produced by each Aa individual are A and a. - The Punnett square for this cross is: ``` A a ------------ A | AA | Aa | ------------ a | Aa | aa | ``` - The genotypes produced are: - AA (homozygous dominant) - 1 - Aa (heterozygous) - 2 - aa (homozygous recessive) - 1 - The total combinations are 4 (1 AA + 2 Aa + 1 aa). - The percentage of homozygous dominant (AA) individuals is 1 out of 4, which is 25%. **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement (ii) **Statement (ii)**: Types of genetically different gametes produced by genotype AABbcc are 2. - The genotype AABbcc can produce gametes based on the alleles present. - For AABbcc: - The A allele is homozygous (AA), so it can only produce one type of gamete: A. - The B allele is homozygous (BB), so it can only produce one type of gamete: B. - The C allele is heterozygous (Cc), so it can produce two types of gametes: C and c. - Therefore, the possible gametes are: - ABc - ABc (from C) - ABc (from c) - The unique combinations of gametes are: - ABC - ABc - Thus, the total types of genetically different gametes produced are 2. **Conclusion**: This statement is **True**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement (iii) **Statement (iii)**: Phenotypic ratio of monohybrid F2 progeny in case of Mirabilis jalapa is 3:1. - In a typical monohybrid cross, the expected phenotypic ratio for the F2 generation is indeed 3:1 when one trait is dominant over another. - However, Mirabilis jalapa (also known as the four o'clock plant) exhibits incomplete dominance, resulting in a phenotypic ratio of 1:2:1 in the F2 generation. **Conclusion**: This statement is **False**. ### Final Conclusion: - Statement (i) is True. - Statement (ii) is True. - Statement (iii) is False. Thus, the correct option is that statements one and two are true, while statement three is false. ### Final Answer: **Option B: Statement 1 and 2 are correct while statement 3 is false.** ---
