Give differences : Homozygous and Heterozygous
Describe Mendel’s Monohybrid experiment.
Normal maize has starchy seeds which remain smooth when dry. A mutant form has sugary seeds which go crinckled when dry. When a mutant was crossed with a normal plant, an $F_1$ was produced which had smooth seeds. What would be the relative ratios of the different seed types, if the $F_1$ was allowed to self
Definitions / Explanation : Genotype
In a monohybrid cross of plants with red and white flowered plants, Mendel got only red flowered plants. On self-pollinating these $F_1$ plants got both red and white flowered plants in $3:1$ ratio. Explain the basis of using $RR$ and $rr$ symbols to represent the geno type of plants of parental generation.
