1. Mother is homozygous for ‘A’ blood group and father is heterozygous for ‘B’
2. Mother is heterozygous for ‘A’ blood group and father is homozygous for ‘B’
3. Both mother and father are heterozygous for ‘A’ and ‘B’ blood group, respectively
4. Both mother and father are homozygous for ‘A’ and ‘B’ blood group, respectively

In case of starch synthesis in pea seeds [controlled by B gene], BB homozygotes produce large and round starch grains; bb homozygotes produce smaller and wrinkled starch grains and Heterozygotes produce round seeds of intermediate size. What can be inferred from this observation?

1. The gene B mutates at a faster rate.
2. The gene B is easily influenced by the environment
3. Dominance is not an autonomous feature of a gene or the product that it has information for
4. Some genes do not follow the law of segregation

Assertion (A): ABO blood grouping has three alleles but humans have any two at a time.
Reason (R): Humans are diploid organisms.
Choices for Assertions and reasons:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True, but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False, but (R) is True.
