Figure 19-24 Diagrams One of Mendel's Experiments Using the Round

Question 31

Multiple Choice

Figure 19-24 diagrams one of Mendel's experiments using the round and wrinkled seed traits. Figure 19-24 diagrams one of Mendel's experiments using the round and wrinkled seed traits.   Figure 19-24 Which of the following statements about the experiment diagrammed in Figure 19-28 is TRUE? A) If you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F<sub>2</sub> generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants, you would get more round-seeded pea plants in the next generation than if you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F<sub>1</sub> generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants. B) The reason you do not see wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F<sub>1</sub> generation is because the round-seeded pea plants used to create the F<sub>1</sub> generation were not true-breeding strains. C) The gene for round-seeded pea plants is on a different chromosome from the gene for wrinkle-seeded pea plants, which is why you get 25% wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F<sub>2</sub> generation. D) If you crossed the round-seeded pea plants from the F<sub>2</sub> generation with the wrinkle-seeded pea plants from the F<sub>2</sub> generation, you should get 100% round-seeded pea plants.

Which of the following statements about the experiment diagrammed in Figure 19-28 is TRUE?


A) If you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F2 generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants, you would get more round-seeded pea plants in the next generation than if you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F1 generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants.
B) The reason you do not see wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F1 generation is because the round-seeded pea plants used to create the F1 generation were not true-breeding strains.
C) The gene for round-seeded pea plants is on a different chromosome from the gene for wrinkle-seeded pea plants, which is why you get 25% wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F2 generation.
D) If you crossed the round-seeded pea plants from the F2 generation with the wrinkle-seeded pea plants from the F2 generation, you should get 100% round-seeded pea plants.
