The correct question is : The given statement is True or False
While studying a sample for height differences, researchers observed that the height of the participants varied significantly regardless of whether the participants' parents were short or tall. This suggests that the physical characteristic of height is most likely an example of Polygenetic inheritance.
Answer: True
Explanation:
The poly genetic inheritance can be defined as the characters which is not only controlled by the single gene in the body it is controlled by the multiple genes of the body.
The genes are large in quantity but the effect is very small. There are many characters in the body which is polygenic in nature.
These are height of offspring, skin color of the offspring, eye color of the offspring, et cetera.
Answer:
1/4 or 1/2 depending on mating partner of F2
Explanation:
Assuming that the F1 parent Rr mated with a plant with the RR, Rr or rr genotype the F2 offspring would have the following genotypes:
Rr x RR= 1/2 RR, 1/2 Rr
Rr x Rr = 1/4 RR, 1/2 Rr, 1/4 rr
Rr x rr = 1/2 Rr, 1/2 rr
The F2 generation with the RR genotype could not be the parents of the F3 generation because to have individuals with the rr genotype the F2 generation would have to mate with a plant that is either Rr or rr in which case the fraction of the population with the stripe rust phenotype will either be 1/4 or 1/2, respectively.
