Verified by Toppr

In a dihybrid cross, two different characters are crossed together. For example, A cross between round yellow seeds with green wrinkled seeds. Here two characters both texture and colour are involved. Such a cross is called a dihybrid cross. These two characters are located on different homologous chromosomes. But a single chromosome does not bear two factors, they are located on two different chromosomes. So, the correct answer is option C.
