The current through an ac circuit first increases and then decreases as its frequency is increased. Which among the followings are most likely combination of the circuit?

[A]: If a population is of dominant genotype AA, then the frequency of dominant alleles in the gene pool will be relatively higher. [R]: The percentage of gametes bearing recessive (aa) allele will be correspondingly low

In an organism, tall phenotype is domination over recessive dwarf phenotype,and the alleles are designated as T and t,respectively.Upon crossing two different individuals, total 250 offsprings were abtained ,out of which 124 displayed tall phenotype and rest were dwarf. Thus, the genotype of the parents were

Two genes 'A' and 'B' are linked. In a dihybrid cross involving these two genes, the F_(1) hetrozygote is crossed with homozygous recessive parental type (aa bb). What would be the ratio of offspring in the next generation?

When a wheat variety of red karnels (homozygous for two nonallelic and independent dominant genes) is crossed with white kernelled wheat (homozygous for two recessive nonalleic independent genes), the phenotypic ratin in F_(2) generation would be

Read the following statements regarding Mendelian inheritance and choose the correct option 1. Mendel's experiments had samll sample size which gave greater credibility to the data 2. A true breeding line shows a stable trait inheritance and expression for several generations 3. In a dissimilar pair of factors, one member of the pair dominates over the other 4. A recessive parental trait is expressed only in its heterozygous condition 5. Two alleles of a gene are located on homologous sites on homologus chromosomes
