Question

Which mathematical expression can be used to obtain the genotypic ratio of F2 offsprings from the gametes of the F1 progeny?

(a) Monomial expression

(b) Binomial expression

(c) Trinomial expression

(d) Algebraic expression

I got this question in unit test.

My enquiry is from Inheritance Principles in chapter Principles of Inheritance and Variation of Biology – Class 12

Answer 1

Right choice is (b) Binomial expression

Best explanation: The binomial expression (ax+by)^2 can be used to model the Mendelian genetics of F2 progeny. The x and y refer to the dominant and the recessive gametes obtained from the F1 heterozygous progeny.
