Question

Select the correct statement

Easy

A

Character resemblances within a progeny and with respect to its parents is possible through gene cloning.
B

During sexual reproduction, characters are transmitted through gametes.
C

Mendel called the fundamental physical unit of heredity as operon.
D

Mendel had extensively studied about the colour of the pea plant in his hybridization experiments.

Solution

During sexual reproduction, characters are transmitted through gametes. The gametes fuse and the new diploid conditions are re-established in the zygote which later forms the diploid offspring.
Character resemblances among same progeny and with their parents is possible because of inheritance.
Mendel called the fundamental physical unit of heredity as unit factors. Mendel stated that something is getting transferred as it is from the parent to the offspring which he called as unit factor.
Mendel had not studied about the colour of the pea plant in his hybridization experiments. The characters selected by Mendel were plant height, flower colour, flower position, pod colour, pod shape, seed colour and seed shape.
