Distinguish between parental and recombinant phenotypes?

Parental Phenotypes are when the offspring of two parents look like one of the two parents. for example, if a green wrinkled pea is crossed with a heterozygous yellow round pea the offspring are 1/4 yellow round, 1/4 green wrinkled, 1/4 yellow wrinkled, and 1/4 green round. the yellow round and green wrinkled look like the parents so they have parental phenotypes, whereas the yellow wrinkled and the green round have combinations of the parental phenotypes thus they have recombinant phenotypes.


What kind of seed can be round or wrinkled seed shape is?

The seed you are referring to is likely a pea seed. Pea seeds can be either round or wrinkled in shape, depending on the genetic makeup of the plant variety.


What did Medel study to learn about genetics?

Mendel studied dominant and recessive traits in pea plants and flowers that had traits that had either or phenotypes. For example, a pea plant could have round or wrinkled offspring. He would then breed the round and wrinkled together and see what happened.


In pea plants are round or wrinkled seeds dominant?

In pea plants round seeds are dominant to wrinkled. So to have round seeds you either will have two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant) or one dominant and one recessive allele (heterozygous)


If a pea plant that is heterozygous for round yellow peas RrYy is crossed with a pea plant that is homozygous for round peas but heterozygous for yellow peas RRYy how many different phenotypes are?

There would be four possible phenotypes: round yellow peas, round green peas, wrinkled yellow peas, and wrinkled green peas. This is due to the different combinations of alleles for seed shape (R for round, r for wrinkled) and seed color (Y for yellow, y for green) that can result from the cross.

What is the probability that a cross between a hybrid pea plant with round seeds and one with wrinkled seeds will produce offspring with wrinkled seeds?

The probability that an offspring will have wrinkled seeds is 2 in 4 or 50%


What is the probability that a offspring will have wrinkled seeds?

R represents the dominant round allele, and rrepresents the recessive wrinkled allele. :D


Two forms of the traits of seed shape in pea plants are?

Mendel described two seed shapes among the pea seeds in his study: Smooth and Wrinkled.


What percentage of the offspring will have round seeds?

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.

What is the possibility that two heterozygous parents would have an offspring that produced round seeds?

In pea plants, the round seed trait (R) is dominant over the wrinkled seed trait (r). If both parents are heterozygous (Rr), the possible offspring genotypes are RR, Rr, and rr, with a 75% chance of producing round seeds (RR or Rr) and a 25% chance of producing wrinkled seeds (rr). Therefore, there is a 75% possibility that two heterozygous parents would have an offspring that produces round seeds.


What are the genes of a wrinkled pea plant seed?

The wrinkled seed is a round cell but has the ressivienie wrinkled seed in it.


What is the physical trait of round and wrinkled?

Round and wrinkled seeds were observed by Mendel in Pea plant while experimenting on its hybridization process. Round or wrinkled stage of seed is a physical trait in pea plant.


What was the probability that two heterozygous parents would have an offspring that produced round seeds?

If both parents are heterozygous for seed shape (Rr), their offspring would have a 75% chance of producing round seeds (3 out of 4 possible combinations), assuming round seeds (R) are dominant over wrinkled seeds (r).


What is the probability that two heterozygous parents would have an offspring that produced round seeds from Mendel?

When both parents are heterozygous for seed shape (Rr, where R is the allele for round seeds and r is the allele for wrinkled seeds), the probability of producing an offspring with round seeds can be determined using a Punnett square. The possible genotypes are RR, Rr, Rr, and rr. Thus, there are three combinations (RR and Rr) that result in round seeds out of four total combinations. Therefore, the probability of having an offspring with round seeds is 3 out of 4, or 75%.


Is round dominant over wrinkled?

Yes, in Mendelian genetics, the round seed shape trait is typically dominant over the wrinkled seed shape trait.
