If a heterozygous tall pea plant, Aa, is crossed with a homozygous plant, AA, for the trait, you will have a one in one in four chance of the offspring being heterozygous. You will need to create a square and plug the traits in to see what the odds are.

When two cultives are crossed their offspring will be?

Their offspring will be heterozygous recessive.


What will be the ratio produced if Tt is crossed with tt?

The ratio produced would be 1:1 for heterozygous (Tt) offspring to homozygous recessive (tt) offspring. This is because the parent with genotype Tt will pass on one dominant allele (T) and one recessive allele (t) to its offspring, resulting in a 50% chance of either genotype in the offspring.


Individual heterozygous for a trait and an individual homozygous recessive for the trait are crossed and produce many offspring?

The offspring will all inherit one copy of the dominant allele (from the heterozygous parent) and one copy of the recessive allele (from the homozygous recessive parent). This results in all offspring being heterozygous for the trait.


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

Out of the 240 offspring, approximately 60 would be homozygous (25% of 240). This is because when two heterozygous plants are crossed (Aa x Aa), the Punnett square shows that 25% of the offspring will be homozygous dominant (AA), 50% will be heterozygous (Aa), and 25% will be homozygous recessive (aa).


purple petal color in pea plants is dominant to white petal color two heterozygous pea plants are crossed what is the ratio of the offspring with white petals to the number total number of offspring?

3:1 ratio Two pea plants, both heterozygous for flower color, are crossed. The offspring will show the dominant purple coloration in a 3:1 ratio


Two heterozygous oompahs are crossed what proportion of the offspring will have orange faces?

If both oompahs are heterozygous (Oo), there are three possible genotypes that would result in offspring with orange faces: OO, Oo, and oO. Therefore, 75% of the offspring from this cross would have orange faces.


In a certain species plant the allele for tallness is dominant over the allele for shortness.to determine wether a tall plant is heterozygous should be crossed with a?

To determine whether a tall plant is heterozygous, it should be crossed with a homozygous recessive plant (short plant). If any offspring are short, the tall plant must be heterozygous; if all offspring are tall, the tall plant is likely homozygous dominant. This test cross allows for the observation of inheritance patterns in the offspring.


What would the offspring most likely be if an individual with a heterozygous trait and an individual with a homozgous recessive trait crossed be?

The offspring would have a 50% chance of being heterozygous and showing the dominant trait and a 50% chance of being homozygous for the recessive trait.


What genotype is not true-breeding?

A heterozygous genotype (e.g. Aa) is not true-breeding because it carries two different alleles for a trait and can produce offspring with different genotypes when crossed. True-breeding genotypes are homozygous for a particular trait (e.g. AA or aa) and will consistently produce offspring with the same genotype when crossed.


If a homozygous brown mink is mated with a silver-blue mink and 8 offspring are produced how many would be silver-blue?

If a homozygous brown mink is mated with a silver-blue mink, the offspring would all be heterozygous for brown. When crossed with a silver-blue mink, half of the offspring would inherit the silver-blue allele, so out of 8 offspring, 4 would be silver-blue.


In flies long wings are a dominant trait and short wings are a recessive trait. If a heterozygous long-winged fly is crossed with a short-winged fly what is the LIKELIHOOD that the offspring will cont?

When a heterozygous long-winged fly (LW) is crossed with a short-winged fly (ww), the possible genotypes of the offspring are LW and ww. This results in a 50% chance of producing long-winged offspring (LW) and a 50% chance of producing short-winged offspring (ww). Therefore, there is a 50% likelihood that the offspring will have long wings.


What is the difference between homozygous yellow peas and heterozygous yellow peas?

Homozygous yellow peas have two identical alleles for yellow color (YY), while heterozygous yellow peas have one yellow allele and one non-yellow allele (Yy). This means that homozygous yellow peas will always produce yellow offspring when crossed, while heterozygous yellow peas have a 50% chance of producing non-yellow offspring when crossed with another heterozygous pea plant.
