The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of what type of genetic cross occurs when an F1 generation hybrid tall plant (Tt) is crossed with a dwarf plant (tt), we can analyze the options provided: dihybrid cross, test cross, crossing over, and reciprocal cross. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the F1 Generation**: - The F1 generation hybrid tall plant has the genotype Tt, where 'T' represents the dominant allele for tallness and 't' represents the recessive allele for dwarfness. - The dwarf plant has the genotype tt, meaning it has two recessive alleles. 2. **Identifying the Cross**: - When we cross Tt (tall) with tt (dwarf), we are trying to determine the genotypes of the offspring produced from this cross. 3. **Analyzing the Types of Crosses**: - **Dihybrid Cross**: This involves two traits, which is not applicable here since we are only dealing with one trait (height). - **Test Cross**: This is a cross between a hybrid (Tt) and a homozygous recessive (tt) to determine the genotype of the hybrid. This matches our scenario. - **Crossing Over**: This is a process that occurs during meiosis where alleles are exchanged between homologous chromosomes, not directly relevant to our question. - **Reciprocal Cross**: This involves switching the sexes of the parents in a genetic cross, which is also not applicable here since we are not changing the parental genotypes. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since we are crossing a hybrid tall plant (Tt) with a dwarf plant (tt) to determine the genotype of the offspring, this is indeed a test cross. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Test Cross**. ---
