Two genes R and Y are located very close on the chromosomal linkage map of the maize plant. When RRYY and rryy genotypes are hybridized, then F₂ segregation will show:

1. higher number of the recombinant types

2. segregation in the expected 9:3:3:1 ratio

3. segregation in a 3:1 ratio

4. higher number of the parental types

In Mendel's experiments with garden peas, round seed shape (RR) was dominant over wrinkled seeds (rr), and yellow cotyledon (YY) was dominant over green cotyledon (yy). What are the expected phenotypes in the F₂ generation of the cross RRYY x rryy?

In a plant red fruit (R) is dominant over yellow fruit (r) and tallness (T) is dominant over shortness (t). If a plant with RRTt genotype is crossed with a plant that is rrtt:

1. 50% will be tall with red fruit

2. 75% will be tall with red fruit

3. All the offspring will be tall with red fruit

4. 25% will be tall with red fruit

The allele for tallness is dominant over that of dwarfness. This is called:
1.  Law of independent assortment
2.  Law of segregation
3.  Law of unit character
4.  Law of dominance
