A blue colour flower plant denoted by BB is crossbred with a white colour flower plant denoted by bb.(a) State the colour of flower you expect in their F1 generation plants.(b) What must be the percentage of white flower plants in F2 generation if flowers of F1 plants are self- pollinated?(c) State the expected ratio of the genotypes BB and Bb in the F2 progeny.
(a) In the F1 generation, the plants will have blue coloured flowers as B (blue) colour flower is dominant over b (white) colour.
(b) In F2 generation, 25% of total flowers are white (bb) in colour when plants are self-pollinated.
(c) The expected ratio of the genotypes BB and Bb in the F2 generation will be BB: Bb = 1: 2.

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage(s) given below and answer the questions that follow. Passage- The transfer of pollen from the another to the stigma of a flower is called pollination.If the pollen of a flower lands on the stigma of the same flower, or on the stigma of another flower of the same plant, it is called self-pollination. When the pollen of a flower lands on the stigma of another flower of a different plant of the same kind, it is called cross-pollination.In cross-pollination,(a) the pollen of a flower lands on the stigma of another flower of the same plant.(b) the pollen of a flower lands on the stigma of another flower of a different plant of the same kind.(c) both the above are correct.(d) none of these is correct.
In peas, a pure tall plant (TT) is crossed with a pure short plant (tt). The ratio of pure tall plants to pure short plants in F2 generation will be:(a) 1:3 (b) 3:1 (c) 1:1 (d) 2:1\n36698"
