The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the nature of the F1 progeny resulting from a cross between AA and aa, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Parent Genotypes:** - The first parent is homozygous dominant (AA). - The second parent is homozygous recessive (aa). 2. **Determine the Gametes Produced:** - The AA parent can only produce one type of gamete: A. - The aa parent can only produce one type of gamete: a. 3. **Perform the Cross:** - When we cross the gametes from both parents, we combine A from the AA parent with a from the aa parent. - The resulting genotype of the F1 progeny will be Aa. 4. **Determine the Genotype of F1 Progeny:** - The F1 progeny has the genotype Aa, which is heterozygous. 5. **Determine the Phenotype of F1 Progeny:** - Since A is dominant over a, the phenotype of the F1 progeny will express the dominant trait associated with the A allele. 6. **Conclusion:** - The nature of the F1 progeny is that it is heterozygous (genotype Aa) and exhibits the dominant phenotype. ### Final Answer: The F1 progeny will be heterozygous (genotype Aa) and will express the dominant trait phenotypically. ---
