Question

The trait expressed in F₁ generation is called:

• A. Recessive Trait
• B. Dominant Trait
• C. Hybrid Trait
• D. Codominant Trait

Hint:

In \(F_1\) generation, the dominant trait is expressed, masking the recessive trait.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding \(F_1\) Generation.
The \(F_1\) generation refers to the first filial generation of offspring obtained by crossing two parental organisms with contrasting traits. Step 2: Dominant and Recessive Traits.
In Mendel's experiments, the trait that appeared in the \(F_1\) generation (the offspring) was the dominant trait. The other trait, which did not appear, was the recessive trait. Step 3: Conclusion.
Thus, the trait expressed in the F₁ generation is the dominant trait.
