What is the phenotype offspring plants?

your question is confusing but a phenotype is a physical characteristic passed from parent to offspring


Does a Tt plant have the same genotype as a TT plant?

Nope! TT is the dominant phenotype (what ever it may be) and tt is the recessive phenotype (what ever that may be).So say T is the allele for Tall plants, t is the allele for short plants. TT would be show the tall phenotype while tt would show the short phenotype. If the genotype was Tt, the phenotype would be tall as well because the T is dominant and masks the phenotype of t (short plants).


How do dominant and recessive alleles affect pheno type?

An allele can effect the phenotype of an organism by its dominance or recessiveness. If two dominant alleles are crossed the offsprings will carry the dominant trait of the alleles. If a dominant allele is crossed with recessive allele the phenotype of the offsprings will be of that of the dominant allele. And if two recessive alleles are crossed the phenotype of their offsprings will carry the reccesive trait.


In pea plants the peas produced may be green or yellow with yellow being the dominant form of the allele. What would be the phenotype of a pea plant that is heterozygous for the alleles?

yellow peas


According to mendel what genes disappear in f1 pea plants?

No genes disappear in the F1 generation. Each of the F1 plants was heterozygous, having both a dominant and recessive alleles. The recessive phenotype disappears in the F1 generation because all members of that generation carry a dominant allele. In the F2 generation, the recessive phenotype will reappear.

tall and short


In pea plants individuals that are Pp for the alleles that code for flower color will have purple flowers What is the phenotype?

Pp, where P represents the dominant allele and p represents the recessive allele.


What was the genotype of the offspring that did not share the parent's phenotype?

The genotype of the offspring that had the same phenotype as the parents is rr or wrinkled. The phenotype for the seed shape of both parent plants is round.

How can two plants that have different genotype have the same phenotype?

No they do not. Say for example we are looking at the the colour of pea plants where R represents the allele for the colour red and, and the other allele r represents green. The plant will be red with the genotype RR AND Rr which are different genotypes.

How can albinism in plants keep occurring if they cannot reproduce?

because the recessive allele is still present in heterozygous individuals. these individuals have one dominant allele and so show the dominant phenotype but they are capable of producing offspring with the recessive condition


When gregor mendel crossed a tall plant with a short plant the f1 plants inherited which allele copies?

one allele from each parentThe F1 generation inherited one dominant (tall) allele from the tall parent and a recessive (short) allele from the short parent. The F1 generation were heterozygous and tall.
