After crossing two plants, the progenies are found to be male sterile. The phrnomenon is found to be maternally inherited and is due to some genes which reside in

A

Nucleus

B

Chloroplast

C

Mitochondria

D

Cytoplasm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Cytoplasmic inheritance is controlled by extra nuclear genes of female present in mitochondria and chloroplast. These genes do not follow Mendelian Inheritance.

Two pea plants were subjected cross pollination. Of the 183 plants produced in the next generation, 94 plants were found to be all and 89 plants were found to be dwarf. The genotypes of the two parental plants are likely to be:

Mendel crossed plants with red and white flowers. In the F_(1) only red flowereed plants wee found. Two F_(1) plants were crossed and in F_(2) -generation 2950 red and 1050 white flowered plants were obtained. It is reasonable, he concluded that

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

The potential energy function of a particle due to some gravitational field is given by U=6x+4y . The mass of the particle is 1kg and no other force is acting on the particle. The particle was initially at rest at a point (6,8) . Then the time (in sec). after which this particle is going to cross the 'x' axis would be:

A projectile is projected with some initial velocity and some initial angle of projection. A wind is also blowing, due to which constant horizontal retardation a is imparted to the particle in the plane of motion.
