1. The genetic complement of an individual is called:

 
 
 
 

2. Diabetes Mellitus is caused by a deficiency of:

 
 
 
 

3. The human male possesses a genotype of:

 
 
 
 

4. The-part of DNA which controls a specific character is

 
 
 
 

5. X and Y-chromosomes are called:

 
 
 
 

6. In pleiotropy:

 
 
 
 

7. Cross appearance of intermediate character is known as:

 
 
 
 

8. In monohybrid cross the allele do not show any blending and that both the characters are recovered as such in F2 generation. This statement is explained on the basis of

 
 
 
 

9. Regarding colour blindness, “when a normal male marries carrier female”, which is the correct statement?

 
 
 
 

10. All other chromosomes except X and Y chromosomes are called
