Biology - 12th Class Biology Chapter 22 Short Questions Preparation

Question # 1

Differentiate between quantitative and qualitative variations.

  • Ans 1: Quantitative variations: In Qualitative variations difference is small and less striking.Many traits like skin color,height and weight exhibit continuous quantitative variation.
  • Ans 2: Qualitative variations: In qualitative variations differences are large and more obvious,some traits like pea seed shape show discontinuous qualitative variations with two sharply distinct phenotypes like round and wrinkled.

Question # 1

What is contribution of Carl Correns in genetics?

  • Ans 1: Carl Correns discovered the phenomenon of incomplete dominance.
    He crossed red flowered 4 O clock plant with while flowered 4 O clock plant.In f1pink flowers were produced instead of red color was dominant.He again crossed pink flowers from F1,in F2 red,pink white flowers obtained with ratio 1:2:1 respectively.

Question # 1

Differentiate between co-dominance and over dominance.

  • Ans 1: Co-dominance: Different alleles of a gene that are both expressed in a heterozygous condition are called codominant and this phenomenon is called codominance.e.g if a man of M blood group marries a woman of N blood group,all their children will have MN blood group.
  • Ans 2: Over-dominance: This dominance relation is fascinating because the overdominant heterozygote exceeds in quantity the phenotypic expression of both the homozygotes.e.g In fruit fly Drosophila the heterozygote W+/W or white eye w/w homozygotes.

Question # 1

Differentiate between continuous and discontinuous variations.

  • Ans 1: Continuous variations: In Continuous variations many intermediate forms of a trait are present and organism show very small difference for a trait.For example skin color,eye color.
  • Ans 2: Discontinuous variations: In discontinuous variations very sharp difference is present and no intermediate forms are present for a trait.For example tongue rolling,attached or free pinna.

Question # 1

Differentiate between population & gene pool.

  • Ans 1: Population: Any group of interbreeding organisms of the same species that exist together in both time and space is called a population.e.g 100 diploid plants of pea in a field is an example of population.
  • Ans 2: Gene pool: All the genes or alleles found in a breeding population at a given time are collectively called the gene pool.e.g pea plants has white colors.There will be 100 genes(or 200 alleles) for flower color in gene pool.

Question # 1

Differentiate between genotype and phenotype.

  • Ans 1: Genotype: Genotype is the genetic complement i.e the genes is an individual for a particular trait e.g"Rr" &"Rr" are alleles for red color."rr" are alleles for white colour.
  • Ans 2: Phenotype:"Phenotype" is the from of appearance of a trait in an organism".e.g Red and white flower colours are example of phenotype.
