c)only R2 and V.
d)R1,R2 and V.

20.modern genetics is based on the gene and the fundamental unit is heredity.Mendel was the first to recognise the existence of gene . He concluded that their determinants of the particular nature known as geenes.In dihybrid crosses Mendel found 9:3:3:1 ration in F2 generation,which all really law 3:1 ratio combined at random.

29.i.At tall,pinked flower plant is self- fertilised and produces the offspring shown.

             Red .     Flower pink colour .   White

tall          73 .           157.                              67
Dwarf .   21 .           53.                               25

When self -fertilised ,which type of plant will only produces identical offspring?
a)dwarf,pink- flowered
b)dwarf, white flowered
c)tall,red flowered
d)tall,white flowered 

ii) In a species of plant, the allele for tall stands is dominant over that for short distance and the allele for purple flowers is dominant  over that for white flowers.
A cross between two plants produced the following phenotypic ratio:-
tall-purpled.flower .                 3
tall,white flowered.                   3
short , purple flowered            1
short ,white flowered               1

What are the phenotypes of the parents?
a)short purple flower.     Tall purple flower
b)Short white flowered.  Tall purple flower
c)tall purple flowered      tall white flower
d)tall white flowered      short white flower

iii. What of these may be heterozygous.
a)ahaploid cell.
b)an allele of gene.
c)an organism with a dominant phenotype
d) an organism with the ressive genotype.

iv.Thers are two hupothesis to explain the production of white,pale pink or dark pink flowers in a species of plant
Hypothesis 1 .There are two codominant alleles .
Hypothesis 2 . There are three alleles ,one for each flower colour .

Which procedure is the best way of testing this hypothesis.
a)analysis of the flower pigments in several different flower by chromatography to find whether some plants contain more than one pigment.

b) controlled cross pollination of all the different colour varieties available, in all possible combinations, and recording the colours shown by the offspring.

c)controlled self pollination of several individuals of each of the colour varieties and recording the colours shown by the offspring of each individual plant sampled. 

d)serving large wild population and finding the ratio of the different colours in this population.
