What is a plant with two dominant or two recessive alleles said to be?

Heterozygous alleles are used to describe the 'parents' when creating a test cross chart. When completing a test cross there is more than comparing alleles, you are really comparing genetics. Heterozygous YY or yy versus Homozygous Yy, is just the first to consider.

If 240 plant offspring were produced from crossing two heterozygous plants how many would be homozygous?

120 on average or 50%. 25% would be homozygous dominant and 25% would be homozygous recessive. The remaining 50% would be heterozygous.


A pea plant with two tall genes is called?

Heterozygous


What determines whether an organism is heterozygous or homozygous dominant?

The second allele. If a plant is heterozygous tall, it is Tt. In this case, the dominant trait is tall, T and recessive is short, t. There are two options for it to be dominant, heterozygous (Tt) or homozygous (TT)


What offspring would you get if you cross a homozygous tall plant with a homozygous short plant?

Homozygous dominant would be all Capital letters. Homozygous recessive would be all lower case letters. So...in basic color genetics for horses: A homozygous recessive horse would be aaee A homozygous dominant horse would be AAEE

What is the probable genotype for the two parents of a cross between two pea plants?

Crossing between two parents is done to combine noble characters of parents into the next generation. Suppose a dwarf pea plant has better quality of pods and its tall counterpart has more number of pods per plant then a plant breeder may think of combining these two characters into its hybrid. The genotype for these tall & dwarf parents with variable pod quality and quantity may be designated as - Tall parent --- ppTT & dwarf parent -- PPtt
