The ratio in a dihybrid test cross between two individuals is given by
Options
- A2: 1
- B1: 2: 1
- C3: 1
- D1: 1: 1: 1 .
Correct answer
D. 1: 1: 1: 1 .
Step-by-step solution
Test cross is a cross to know the genotype of the individual. The individual is crossed with recessive parent. The dihybrid test cross ratio is 1: 1: 1: 1 . The characters under consideration are tall white and dwarf black. Gametes of TtWw = TW , Tw , tW , tw Gametes of ttww = tw Thus the ratio of TtWw : Ttww : ttWw : ttww is 1: 1: 1: 1 .
