In garden peas, the texture of the seed coat and the size of the pea plant are two traits determined by separate genes. Smooth seed coat tall plant size (T) is dominant to dwarf size (t). What is the ratio of phenotypes would expect to see in the offspring of a cross between plant that is heterozygous for both traits? a. 3:1 b. 1:1:1:1 c. 1:1

In a test cross, peas of an unknown genotype are crossed with peas of a known genotype. In this example, smooth peas are the unknown and wrinkled peas are the known (rr). If half of the offspring from that cross are smooth and half are wrinkled, what is the genotype of the unknown plant? O a. Homozygous dominant: RR O b. Homozygous recessive: rr Oc.

Using Mendel’s lines of peas, describe how you would use a test cross experimental design to determine the genotype of a pea plant with purple flowers. Be very specific in describing your experimental design and how you would interpret your results based on the proportion of offspring phenotypes. Make sure to include all possible offspring phenotypes in your answer and what the proportion of phenotypes tells you about the purple plant genotype.
In garden pea plants, the yellow seed colour (Y) is dominant over the green seed colour (y). What are the genotypes of heterozygous yellow seeds and homozygous recessive seeds, respectively? Select one: a. yy and Yy b. Yy and YY c. Yy and yy d. yY and yy
Use a Punnett square to predict the offspring in a cross between a tall pea plant (heterozygous) and a tall pea plant (heterozygous). What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring?
In certain plants, the tall trait is dominant to the short trait. If a heterozygous plant is crossed with a homozygous short plant, what is the percentage that the offspring will be short? a. 100% b. 50% c. 25% d. 0%
In birds, sex is determined by a ZW chromosome scheme. Males are ZZ and females are ZW. A recessive lethal allele that causes death of the embryo is sometimes present on the Z chromosome in pigeons. What would be the sex ratio in the surviving offspring of a cross between a male that is heterozygous for the lethal allele and a normal female? a. 2:1 male to female b. 1:2 male to female c. 1:1 male to female d. 4:3 male to female e. 3:1 male to female
A type of flower called the Rhododendron has a CW allele that leads to red flower color and a CW allele that leads to white flower color. Rhododendrons with the heterozygous genotype CWCW have flowers with red and white patches. If you crossed two heterozygous Rhododendrons, what flower phenotype ratios would you expect in the offspring? O a) 50% red, 50% white O b) 100% red-and-white patches O c) 9 red: 3 white: 1 red-and-white patches d) 25% white, 25% red, 50% red-and-white patches
You experiment with the genetics of height in a plant. You cross a homozygous tall (TT) plant with a homozygous short (tt) plant. Describe what the genotype and phenotype of the F1 progeny would look like if the plants exhibited complete dominance. Now describe the expected results if the trait exhibited incomplete dominance. What about the F2 progeny, assuming you crossed the F1 progeny with each other?
