Question

Consider the following four statements (1,2,3 and 4) and select the right option for incorrect statement.
a.Mendelian experiments had large sampling size, which gave greater credibility to the data that he collected.
b.Recessive allele influences the appearance of phenotype even in the presence of an alternative allele.
c.multiple alleles can be found only when population studies are made.
d.In $F_2$, generation of Mendelian monohybrid cross, the tall and Dwarf traits were identical to their parental types and showed blending.

• A. a and c
• B. c and d
• C. b and d
• D. b and c

Answer 1

The correct option is C b and d

the incorrect statement are b. and d.

statement b. is incorrect as recessive allele fail to show it's characteristics when present with dominant allele because then dominant allele show its characteristic phenotype.

statement d is incorrect as blending never occurs we know from the law of segregation (universally accepted ) that each pair of alleles segregates independently of the other pairs of alleles during gamete formation.
