Explanation: When hybrid seeds are sown (often from F1 hybrids), the resulting plants are typically heterozygous at most gene loci because they inherit different alleles from the two parent plants. The plants of the first generation (F1) are genetically uniform in terms of the cross, meaning they are mostly homogeneous with regard to their heterozygous genetic makeup. This population is considered homogeneous in the sense that all plants are hybrid and heterozygous, despite having a mix of genes compared to pure-breeding lines. Over subsequent generations, segregation occurs, leading to genetic diversity (heterogeneous population).
