Q. When a tall pea plant (TT) is crossed with dwarf plant (tt) what will be the $F_{2}$-generation?

A) All tall plants
B) All dwarf plants
C) Both tall and dwarf plants in 1 : 1 ratio
D) Both tall and dwarf plants in 3 : 1 ratio
Explanation

When a tall pea plant (TT) is crossed with dwarf plant (tt), the $F_{1}$progeny shows all plants hybrid tall and on selfing of $F_{1}$progeny, the $F_{2}$generation shows both tall and dwarf plant in the ratio 3 : 1. Out of three tall plants, one is pure tall (TT) and two are hybrid tall (Tt).
