Question

Match List I with List II

List I List II
A. Two or more alternative forms of a gene I. Back cross
B. Cross of $F_{1}$ progeny with homozygous recessive parent II. Ploidy
C. Cross of $F_{1}$ progeny with any of the parents III. Allele
D. Number of chromosome sets in plant IV. Test cross

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

A.A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
B.A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
C.A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
D.A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Alleles test cross back cross and ploidy]

Alternative forms of a gene are alleles (A–III). Crossing F₁ with the homozygous recessive parent is a test cross (B–IV). Crossing F₁ with either parent is a back cross (C–I). The number of chromosome sets is ploidy (D–II). Hence, option (1).
