Yellow seeds are dominant to green seeds in peas. Show a cross between a homozygous yellow seed with a green seed. Identify the genotypes and phenotypic ratio.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Since yellow seeds are dominant, let us assign them the alleles YY

The green seeds will be represented by yy alleles

Therefore for a seed to be green it will have homozygous yy allele however heterozygous Yy seed will be phenotypically yellow

A cross between a homozygous yellow and green will be

 (YY × yy)

The resulting offsprings or the F1 generation

will have the genotype. Yy, Yy, Yy, Yy

Phenotypically, all the offsprings will be yellow
