Vedclass · Answer

(C) pure tall plant has the genotype $TT$,while a hybrid tall plant has the genotype $Tt$.When a $TT$ plant undergoes self-pollination,all offspring are tall $(TT)$.When a $Tt$ (hybrid) plant undergoes self-pollination,according to Mendel's laws,offspring are produced in a $3:1$ ratio of tall to dwarf plants.Therefore,if all offspring are tall after self-pollination,the parent is a pure tall plant. If dwarf plants are also produced after self-pollination,the parent is a hybrid tall plant.

How can a hybrid tall plant be distinguished from a pure tall plant?
