Answer:

The correct answer would be the first option.

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which sister chromatids of the chromosomes are separated into two daughter cells.

Each cell gets the same number of chromosomes as present in the parent cell. It is used in the cell or tissue repair and growth.

Meiosis is a type of cell division which includes two sets of divisions; meiosis I and meiosis II.

Meiosis I includes the division of homologous chromosomes whereas meiosis II includes the division of sister chromatids.

It results in the formation of four daughter cells from a single parent, each daughter cell contains half the chromosomes of the parent cell.

It helps in the production of gametes in sexually reproducing organisms.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. 3/16.

Explanation:

In the given question two traits being studied, the traits are flower color and seed shape.

This is a typical Mendel’s dihybrid cross. According to the question purple colour (P) and round seed (R) are dominant traits.

When heterozygous purple-flowered (Pp), round-seeded (Rr) individuals are crossed, four different types of plants are produced phenotypically in the ratio 9:3:3:1.Out of 16 offspring, 9 are purple flowered, round seeded pea plants, 3 pea plants are white-flower with round seed, 3 are purple- flower with wrinkled seed and 1 pea plant is white-flowered with wrinkled seed pea plant is produced.
