- In pea plants, the dominant S allele produces round peas and the recessive s allele produces wrinkled peas when homozygous. The dominant C allele gives yellow peas and the recessive c allele gives green peas when homozygous. The following test cross is set up between two pea plants: SsCc x sscc. 213 42 50 208 yellow Given the progeny phenotypes above, what was the arrangement of alleles in the heterozygous parent? Answers below show (the alleles on one chromosome)/(the alleles on the other chromosome). Osc/sc O SC/SC 5s/Cc O SC/sc O SC/Scarrow_forwardA 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.

- In a hypothetical insect species, eye color may be purple or red and wings may be long or short. The table shows the results of two crosses where the parents were obtained from a mixed population that did not breed true. Cross 1 Cross 2 Parents red, long male x red, long female red, short male x purple, long female Progeny males: one-half red, long; one-half red, short females: all red, long males: one-half red, long; one-half red, short females: one-half red eyed, long; one-half red eyed, short What is the mode of inheritance for eye color in this insect? The eye-color gene is autosomal, and red is dominant to purple. The eye-color gene is X-linked, and red is dominant to purple. The eye-color gene is X-linked, and purple is dominant to red. The eye-color gene is autosomal, and purple is dominant to red. What is the mode of inheritance for wing size in this insect? The wing size gene is autosomal, and short is dominant to long.
