Solution

The correct option is C i- 4, ii-3, iii-2, iv-8
When pea plant with round shaped seeds with yellow colour seed (RRYY) is crossed with another pea plant showing wrinkled shape with green cotyledons (rryy), the F1 generation will have round shaped seeds with yellow colour seed (RrYy) progeny. When this is cross, the F2 generation will have progeny in the ratio of 9 (round shaped seeds with yellow colour seed) : 3 (wrinkled shaped seeds with yellow colour seed) : 3 (round shaped seeds with green colour seed) : 1 (wrinkled shape with green cotyledons).
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
