The offspring are usually sterile.
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.
It depends on the parents' genes. If both parent have a Pp genotype, then the offspring has a 25% chance of having a PP genotype. But if both parents have a PP genotype then its 100%.
The genotype of the offspring will be WwMm, representing a heterozygous combination for both genes (Ww for gene 1 and Mm for gene 2). This means the offspring will inherit one dominant allele (W or M) and one recessive allele (w or m) for each gene.
This is due to Mendel's law of segregation, which states that alleles separate during gamete formation and randomly unite during fertilization. Therefore, there is a 25% chance that offspring from an Aa x Aa cross will inherit the genotypes AA, resulting in the expression of the recessive trait.

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.
True-breeding strain refers to a genotype that, when self-pollinated or crossed with another organism with the same genotype, always produces offspring with the same phenotype. This means that the trait is homozygous and will be consistently expressed in the offspring generation after generation.
When a homozygous dominant female (genotype AA) is crossed with a homozygous recessive male (genotype aa), all offspring will inherit one dominant allele from the mother and one recessive allele from the father, resulting in a genotype of Aa for all offspring. The phenotype ratio will show all offspring displaying the dominant trait. Thus, the genotype ratio is 100% Aa, and the phenotype ratio is 100% expressing the dominant trait.
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.
In a test cross, one individual with a dominant phenotype but unknown genotype is crossed with a homozygous recessive individual. The genotype of the individual with the dominant phenotype can then be inferred based on the phenotypic ratios of the offspring.
It depends on the parents' genes. If both parent have a Pp genotype, then the offspring has a 25% chance of having a PP genotype. But if both parents have a PP genotype then its 100%.

The genotype of the offspring will be WwMm, representing a heterozygous combination for both genes (Ww for gene 1 and Mm for gene 2). This means the offspring will inherit one dominant allele (W or M) and one recessive allele (w or m) for each gene.
