In pea plants, smooth pods are dominant to wrinkled pods, and green pods are dominant to yellow pods. Two pea plants with smooth green pods are crossed. Both plants are heterozygous for pod texture and pod color. Which phenotype ratio in the offspring would BEST support the conclusion that the genes for pod texture and pod color are on different chromosomes?
a. 6 smooth green: 6 smooth yellow: 2 wrinkled green: 2 wrinkled yellow
b. 9 smooth green: 3 smooth yellow: 3 wrinkled green: 1 wrinkled yellow
c. 9 smooth green: 1 smooth yellow: 3 wrinkled green: 3 wrinkled yellow
d. 0 smooth green: 8 smooth yellow: 8 wrinkled green: 0 wrinkled yellow

Respuesta :

The answer to the question is C

In pea plants, smooth pods are dominant over wrinkled pods, and green pods are dominant over yellow pods.

Two pea plants with smooth green pods are crossed. Both plants are heterozygous for pod texture and pod colour is the option "C" that is 9 smooth green: 1 smooth yellow: 3 wrinkled green: 3 wrinkled yellow.

What is the dihybrid cross?

A dihybrid cross tells mating experimentation between two organisms that are identically hybrid for two features .

A hybrid organism is one that is heterozygous, which signifies that it takes two distinct alleles at a certain genetic situation, or locus.

Thus, the option "C" is 9 smooth green: 1 smooth yellow: 3 wrinkled green: 3 wrinkled yellow.
