Alleles do not show any blending and both the characters recover as such in $F_2$ generation.

Vedclass · Answer

(c) : According to Mendel&rsquo;s law of dominance, in heterozygous individuals a character is represented by two contrasting factors called alleles or allelomorphs which occur in pairs. Out of the two contrasting alleles, onlyone is able to express its effect in the individual. It is called dominant factor or dominant allele. The other allele which does not show its effect in the heterozygous individual is called recessive factor or recessive allele. The option $(c)$ in the given question cannot be explained on the basis of law of dominance. It can only be explained on the basis of Mendel&rsquo;s law of independent assortment, according to which in a dihybrid cross, the two alleles of each character assort independently (do not show any blending) of the alleles of other character and separate at the time of gamete formation. Both the characters are recovered as such in $F_2$ generation producing both parental and new combinations oftraits.
