A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring?
Construct the punnet square, then identify the following:
1. Parents’ genes?2. Parents’ traits?3. Genes (genotype)?4. Shape, color? (phenotype)?5. Genotypic ratio?6. Phenotypic ratio?
If a pea plant with the genotype YyRr is self-fertilized, what is the probability of obtaining
offspring that are heterozygous for seed color and homozygous dominant for seed
shape.
If a pea plant with the genotype YyRr is self-fertilized, what is the probability of obtaining
offspring that are homozygous dominant for both traits?

- The diagram shows a plant that is heterozygous for two genes. G = yellow; g = green; R = round; r = wrinkled G Four different types of gametes are produced by a heterozygous individual when crossing over occurs, and two different types of gametes are produced when crossing over does not occur. What does this information reveal about crossng over? O Crossing over introduces variety by producing different combinations of alleles. O Crossing over reduces the incidence of DNA and chromosomal mutations. O Crossing over introduces variety in by creating types of genes. O Crossing over maintains the count of genes and the original alleles in both chromosomes.

In a particular plant, leaf color is controlled by gene locus D. Plants with at least one allele D have dark green leaves, and plants with the homozygous recessive dd genotype have light green leaves. A true- breeding, dark- leaved plant is crossed with a light- leaved one, and the F1 offspring is allowed to self- pollinate. The predicted outcome of the F2 is diagrammed in the Punnett square shown in the figure, where 1,2,3, and 4 represent the genotypes corresponding to each box within the square.
