What is the phenotype ratio of the offspring of the plants in the Punnett square?

The heterozygous plants are purple, therefore purple is the dominant allele.
Assuming it is a single gene with only two possible alleles and the other colour is white; a cross between two heterozygous plants (Pp X Pp) should produce 3 purple and 1 white offspring. This means 3/4 will be purple.
1 offspring will have the genotype PP (purple), 2 will have Pp (purple) and 1 will have pp (white).

∙ 14y agoThere's not enough information to answer this completely based on the question.
Are the plants homo or heterozygous?
Which traits are dominent and which are recessive?
Here's the basics:
Call the dominent trait 'A', and the recessive 'a' and using basic Mendelian genetics the parents can be AA, Aa, or aa:
Aa crossed with Aa in a chart looks like this:
A a
__________
A| AA | Aa|
a| Aa | aa|
So, 25% AA, 25% aa, 50% Aa
You can do the same thing with two traits, but the matrix is larger.

∙ 7y agoA punnett square shows the genotype of the offspring from which a phenotype can be determined if there is an understanding of how the alleles affect the appearance of the offspring.
Least complicated would single alleles from each parent where parent AA is crossed with parent AA.
In this case all offspring have the same phenotype so there is no ratio. Cossing Aa parents results in AA, Aa and aa offspring where based on phenotype AA and Aa are the same and aa is different.
The ratio in this case would be 3:1 for phenotype.

∙ 14y agothere's 1/2 or 50% chance that the offspring will be a heterozygous purple plant and 1/2 or 50% chance that the offspring will be a white flowered plant. ----

∙ 12y agoLet's say T=dominant trait and t=recessive trait
T t
T TT Tt
t Tt tt
So, 1 TT, 2 Tt, and 1 tt

What is a punnett square and what does it tell you?
A punnett square is a device used to predict the different allele composition of offspring from the cross of two individuals.
How do you find possible phenotypes of offspring?
Mendel Diagrams. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from one parent and a recessive gene from another, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring get a recessive gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the recessive gene.
A tool used to visualize all the possible combination of alleles from parents?
The tool used to visualize all of the possible combinations of alleles from parents to offspring is called a punnett square.

What is a tool for predicting genotypes of offspring?
In genetics a type of grid is used to show the gametes of each parent and their possible offspring and also called the checkerboard is used. The Punnet Square is named after Reginald Crundall Punnett an English geneticist.

What is used to organize possible offspring combination?
punnett squares
How do you find possible phenotypes in offspring?
The possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring can be determined using a Punnett square, a grid that shows the possible combinations of alleles that can result at fertilisation. The Punnett square below shows the expected genotypes of the offspring of parent pea plants that both have the genotype Rr.
