Question
A farmer crossed a tall (T) pea plant carrying yellow seeds and a dwarf pea plant (t) carrying green seeds . Tall is dominant over the dwarf and yellow is dominant over the green. Fertilization of the first generation pea plants produced a total of 16 second filial generation offsprings of the pea plants. How many tall pea plants that will have green seeds can you expect to be produced? What will be the genotype of these plants (Homozygous? Heterozygous? Or Both?).

- A homozygous round seeded plant is crossed with a homozygous wrinkle seeded plant. What are the genotypes of the parent plants? ________ x ________ What percentage of the offspring will be homozygous?arrow_forwardA researcher at ASU is studying the exotic Unicorn Fairy plant. The plant has three genes of interest with the dominant alleles being T-tall, H=hairy leaves and P=purple flowers. The three genes are located in different chromosomes. A trihybrid plant is crossed with a plant that is heterozygous for T and homozygous recessive for the other two genes. What is the probability of getting offspring that is tall, has hairy leaves and white flowers? 9/64 5/8 8/64 O 3/64 O 3/16arrow_forwardIn peas, round seeds are dominated to wrinkled seeds. A heterozygous round seeded plant is crossed with a wrinkled seeded plant. What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the F1 generation? Show your Punnett square.

- In peas, tall (T) is dominant to short (t). A homozygous tall plant is cross with a short plant. The F1 are self fertilized to produce the F2. Both tall and short plants appear in the F2. If the tall F2 are self fertilized, what types of offspring and proportions will be produced? (Show all your work) please use the punnet squarearrow_forwardWhat will be the phenotypic ratio of the offspring of a purebreed male fly with eosin eyes (CCXw-eY) mated to a red-eyed female who is heterozygous for both the cream (C) and eosin eyes (Xw-e) allele.arrow_forwardThe image shows a pair of homologous chromosomes from a single parent before gamete production. M1 and M2 are maternal chromosomes, while P1 and P2 are paternal chromosomes. Two traits are shown: D represents seed color (D – green, d – yellow), while F represents flower color (F – purple, f – white). These two traits follow the patterns of basic Mendelian genetics. During crossing-over between the M2 F allele and the P1 f allele, a mutation occurred and the portion of P1 did not reattach to the chromosome. Which of the following explains what would happen to the proportion of white flowers in a population resulting from this mutation? A - There would be an increase in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele is distributed to more gametes. B - There would be a decrease in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele is not distributed to as many gametes. C - There would be an increase in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele would not be masked by the…arrow_forward

One plant is homozygous dominant for heightand color while the other is homozygous recessive for height and color. (A:tall, a:short, B:brown,b:red) The F1 plants are allowed to self-fertilize to produce an F2 generation. After conductingan experiment we get the following results:398 tall and brown plants122 tall and red plants128 short and brown plants45 short and red plants Using the Chi Square formula and table, determine if your results support the hypothesis ofindependent assortment or not.
