In pea plants purple flowers are dominant to white flowers.
If two white flowered plants are cross, what percentage of their
offspring will be white flowered?


Sagot :

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for flower color in pea plants. The allele for purple flowers (P) are dominant to white flowers (p). This means that purple color will be expressed in a heterozygous state.

According to this question, If two white flowered plants are cross i.e. pp × pp, the following gametes will be produced by each of the parent: p and p. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), ALL (100%) of the offsprings will be white colored (pp).

Therefore, 100% of the offsprings will be white flowered.
