Show the cross between a heterozygous purple flowered pea plant and a white flowered pea plant.
What is the genotypic ratio of the above cross?
What is the phenotypic ratio of the above cross?
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 plant is tall, has round seeds and purple flowers, with the genotype of TTRREE is crossed with a plant that is short and has wrinkle seeds and white flowers with the genotype ttrree. What would be the offspring of their F1 generation and F2 generation like? Form a Punnett square and write the phenotypic ratio?
