Progeny of a F1 hybdrid plant

A. Breeds true

B. Resembles maternal plant

C. Resembles paternal plant

D. Segreagates in next generation

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The progeny of an F1 hybrid plant Segregates in the next generation.
An F1 hybrid is a term used in genetics and selective breeding. F1 stands for Filial 1, the first filial generation seeds/plants or animal offspring resulting from a cross-mating of distinctly different parental types. The characters further segregate into the next generation.
Crossing two genetically different plants produce hybrid seed. For mass production of F1 hybrids with uniform phenotype, the parent plants must have predictable genetic effects on the offspring.
