4. When dominant purple color flower (PP) are crossed with recessive white (pp), then the progenies will have the ratio of Purple: White is (1) 1:2:1 (2) 3:1 (3) All purple (4) 2:2

4. When dominant purple color flower (PP) are crossed with recessive white (pp), then the progenies will have the ratio of Purple: White is
(1) 1:2:1                  (2) 3:1
(3) All purple        (4) 2:2

 

Monohybrid Cross: PP × pp

Alleles

Purple allele: P (dominant)

White allele: p (recessive)

Parents

Parent 1 (purple): de>PP
Parent 2 (white): de>pp

Gametes

de>PP parent produces only de>P gametes

de>pp parent produces only de>p gametes

F1 Zygotes

de>P
de>p de>Pp

All offspring: de>Pp → Purple flowers (P dominant)

Phenotypic ratio: Purple : White = 4 : 0
All purple → Option (3)

de>1:2:1 – Wrong

This is the genotypic ratio (PP:Pp:pp) in the F2 of a monohybrid self (de>Pp × Pp), not in a de>PP × pp cross [web:31].

de>3:1 – Wrong

This is the F2 phenotypic ratio when heterozygotes are selfed, not the F1 from de>PP × pp [web:35].

de>2:2 – Wrong

Would imply half purple and half white; impossible because every F1 is de>Pp and therefore purple [web:36].

Correct Answer: Option (3) All Purple
