parents.
II. F₂ progeny is a resultant hybrid generation of cross pollination among F₁ progeny and progeny shows retain as such both drawf and tall plants.
III. F₂progeny is second hybrid generation, produced by selfing F₁ hybrids and progeny contained both drawf and tall plants.
IV. The proportion of probability of plants that were drawf were 1/4th of the F₂ plants while 3/4th of the F₂ plants were tall.
The correct statements are

I, II, III, IV

I, III, IV

I, II, IV

III, IV
