Principles of Inheritance and Variation

In one of the hybridisation experiments, a homozygous dominant parent and a homozygous recessive parent are crossed for a trait. (Plant shows Mendelian inheritance pattern)

A
Dominant parent trait appears in F2 generation and recessive parent trait appears only in F1 generation
B
Dominant parent trait appears in F1 generation and recessive parent trait appears in F2 generation
C
Dominant parent trait appears in both F1 & F2 generations, recessive parent trait appears in only F2 generation
D
Dominant parent trait appears in F1 generation and recessive parent trait appears in F1 and F2 generations

Solution:

C. Dominant parent trait appears in both F1 & F2 generations, recessive parent trait appears in only F2 generation
