AIIMS 2018 Botany Biology MCQ Question

The correct answer is A) 3:1 ratio in F₂ generation because it directly illustrates the law of dominance, which states that when two different alleles for a trait are present, the dominant allele will mask the effect of the recessive allele. In a typical monohybrid cross, the F₂ generation exhibits a phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant traits to 1 recessive trait, confirming that the dominant allele is expressed while the recessive allele remains hidden in the presence of the dominant allele.
