Cross pollination occurs within the same species of different plant is known as -

In Antirrhinum (Snapdragon), a red flower was crossed with a-white flower and in F_1 generation pink flowers were obtained. When pink flower were selfed, the F_2 generation showed white,red and pink flowers. Choose the incorrect statemes from the following :

Assertion. The time involved between pollination and fertilization varies from species to species Reason. All the pollen that reach the stigma succeed in affecting fertilization .

Which of the following statements is not correct 1. Insects that consume pollen or nectar without bringing about pollination are called pollen/nectar robbers 2. Pollen germination and pollen tube growth are regulated by chemical components of pollen interacting with those of the pistil 3. Some reptiles have also been reported as pollinators in some plant species 4. Pollen grains of many species can germinate on the stigma of a flower, but only one pollen tube of the same species grows into the style

Find the true statements (i) F_(1) progeny is first hybrid generation and progeny resembles either of parents (ii) F_(2) progeny is a resultant hybrid generation of cross pollination among F_(1) progeny and the progeny shows both dwarf and tall plants (iii) F_(2) progeny is second hybrid generation produced by selfing F_(1) hybrids and progeny contains both dwarf and tall plants (iv) Proportion of probability of plants that are dwarf is 1/4 of F_(2) plants while 3/4 of F_(2) plants are tall

Quantum mechanical calcuations show that mathematical mixing of certain combinaaation of orbitals in a given atom forms hybrid orbitals. The spatial orientations of these new orbitals lead to more stable bonds and are consistent with the observed molecular shapes . The process of orbital mixing is called hybridization and the new atomic orbitals are called hybrid orbitals.- Conditions (i) The no. of hybrid orbitals equal the number of atomic orbitalsmixed. (ii)The type of hybrid orbitals obtained varies with the type of atomic orbitals mixed. Rules to determine hybrid orbitals. Method i:Count no .of atoms directiy attached to central atom + lone pairs+single electrons. Method II: Count sigma - bonds+co-ordinate bonds+ lone pair+single electrons.
