Consider, pea plants, for which green color is dominant to yellow color, and two leaves are dominant to three. A cross between two plants that are heterozygous green and heterozygous tall is completed. What is the phenotypic ratio? 1:1:1:1
9:3.3:1
1:3:3:9
9:1:3:3​

Sagot :

Answer:

The phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1

Explanation:

Available data:

  • green color (G-) is dominant to yellow color (gg)
  • G allele is dominant. g allele is recessive
  • two leaves (T-) are dominant to three (tt)
  • T allele is dominant, t allele is recessive

Cross: between two plants that are heterozygous green and heterozygous tall
