Question

Transcribed Image Text:2. The following pedigree demonstrates the ability to taste PTC paper. The ability to taste is a
dominant trait and is represented by the letter T. Nontasters are represented by tt and uncertain
genotypes as T_. Refer to Figure III and identify the genotypes as you did in the previous pedigree.

- homozygous recessive: 3) Round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds in pea plants. Fill in the Punnett square and determine the expected genotypes and phenotypes of the F₁ generation by crossing homozygous recessive and heterozygous parents.
