Seema crossed pure breed pea plants havi...

Seema crossed pure breed pea plants having round-yellow seeds with wrinkled green seeds and found that only A-B type of seeds were produced in the `F_1` generation. When `F_1` generation pea plants having A-B type of seeds were cross-breed oy self pollination, then in addition to the original found yellow and wrinkled green seeds, two new varieties A-D and C-B types of seeds were also obtained.
The above cross is known as

A

Monohybrid cross

B

Dihybrid cross

C

Test cross

D

Back cross

The correct Answer is:
To determine the type of cross that Seema performed with the pea plants, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Traits Involved**: - Seema crossed purebred pea plants with two traits: seed shape (round vs. wrinkled) and seed color (yellow vs. green). - Round seeds (R) and yellow seeds (Y) are dominant traits, while wrinkled seeds (r) and green seeds (y) are recessive traits. 2. **Analyze the F1 Generation**: - The F1 generation produced only one type of seed, which is the dominant phenotype (round-yellow seeds, represented as AB). - This indicates that all offspring from the cross of round-yellow seeds with wrinkled-green seeds exhibit the dominant traits. 3. **Self-Pollination of F1 Generation**: - When the F1 generation (AB) was self-pollinated, the resulting offspring showed a variety of combinations: round-yellow (AB), wrinkled-green (ab), and two new combinations (AD and CB). - The appearance of these new combinations suggests that two traits were segregating independently. 4. **Determine the Type of Cross**: - Since two traits (seed shape and seed color) were involved in the initial cross and both traits segregated in the F2 generation, this indicates that the cross is a **dihybrid cross**. - A dihybrid cross involves two different traits, which is consistent with the traits studied by Seema. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the cross performed by Seema is known as a **dihybrid cross**. ### Final Answer: The above cross is known as **B. Dihybrid cross**.

To determine the type of cross that Seema performed with the pea plants, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Traits Involved**: - Seema crossed purebred pea plants with two traits: seed shape (round vs. wrinkled) and seed color (yellow vs. green). - Round seeds (R) and yellow seeds (Y) are dominant traits, while wrinkled seeds (r) and green seeds (y) are recessive traits. ...
