For each set of genotypes, give the phenotype that is possible for Patrick. Pink body color (P) is dominant to yellow (p). 1- Pp or PP = Pink body colored phenotype 2-pp = Yellow body colored phenotype
Explanation:
In genetic model of study, the inheritable traits are present in pair of alleles where each allele represents a trait independently and upon pairing, one of the factor of the pair represents itself more dominantly than the other and so the allelic pair represents the dominant counterpart characteristics as the phenotype, known by the Law of Dominance given by Mendel.
In the same regard, here the genotype sets are given to be as P representing the pink body color and is dominant in nature, whereas p represents the yellow body color and is recessive in nature.
Thereby, in genotype given, Pp (presence of one dominant allele) or PP (presence of both the allele as dominant), will represent pink body color phenotype. And similarly, pp will represent yellow body color phenotype (due to absence of any dominant allele).
