The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which character can express only in a homozygous condition in the case of garden pea, we need to analyze the options provided based on Mendelian genetics. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Homozygous Condition**: - A character that expresses only in homozygous condition is typically a recessive trait. This means that for the trait to be expressed, the organism must have two identical alleles (e.g., aa). 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **(A) Constricted pod**: - This is a recessive trait. The dominant trait is the full pod. Therefore, constricted pod can only express in a homozygous condition (aa). - **(B) Green seed color**: - Green seed color is also a recessive trait. The dominant trait is yellow seed color. Thus, green seed color can only express in a homozygous condition (bb). - **(C) Axial flower**: - Axial flower is a dominant trait. It can express in both homozygous (AA) and heterozygous (Aa) conditions. Therefore, this option does not qualify. - **(D) Yellow pod**: - Yellow pod is a recessive trait. The dominant trait is green pod. Thus, yellow pod can only express in a homozygous condition (cc). 3. **Identifying the Correct Answer**: - From the analysis, options (A), (B), and (D) are all recessive traits that can express only in homozygous conditions. However, the question asks for a single character that expresses only in homozygous condition. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since the question asks for a character that can express only in homozygous condition, we can conclude that **Constricted pod (A)** is a clear example of a trait that expresses only in homozygous condition. ### Final Answer: The character which can express only in homozygous condition in case of garden pea is **(A) Constricted pod**.
