The phenotypic ratio in the F2 generation of a monohybrid cross is

A9:3:3:1
B3:1
C1:1
D2:1
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 3:1
1. A monohybrid cross follows a single character, such as height in pea. 2. The F1 plants are all of the dominant phenotype. 3. Self pollinating them gives an F2 in the ratio 3:1. 4. The genotypic ratio underneath that phenotype is 1:2:1, which is a different figure. _Source: syllabus Biology Ch4 'Principles of Inheritance and Variation'_
