| I: | the process by which characters are passed on from parent to progeny. |
| II: | the degree by which progeny differ from their parents. |
| I: | artificial hybridisation experiments were carried out. |
| II: | statistical analysis and mathematical logic were applied to problems in biology. |
| 1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
| 3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
| Statement I: | Genes are the units of inheritance and contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism. |
| Statement II: | Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene |
| 1. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect |
| 2. | Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct |
| 3. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct |
| 4. | Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is incorrect |
| 1. | Mendel found the phenotype of the F1 heterozygote Tt to be exactly like the TT parent in appearance. |
| 2. | He proposed that in a pair of dissimilar factors, one dominates the other. |
| 3. | It is convenient (and logical) to use the capital and lower case of an alphabetical symbol to remember this concept of dominance and recessiveness. |
| 4. | It is convenient (and logical) to use the capital and lower case of different alphabets symbol to remember this concept of dominance and recessiveness. |
| I: | Homozygous dominant progeny |
| II: | Homozygous recessive progeny |
| III: | Heterozygous progeny |
| Assertion (A): | Mendel self-pollinated the F2 plants and found that dwarf F2 plants continued to generate dwarf plants in F3 and F4 generations. |
| Reason (R): | The genotype of the dwarfs was homozygous. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains Assertion. |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
| 4. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| I: | \(Rr \times Rr\) | II: | \(Rr \times rr\) |
| III: | \(RR \times rr\) | IV: | \(Rr \times RR\) |
