What letters can be used to model Mendels cross of true-breeding tall plants what true-breeding short plants in a Punnett square?
TT for the homozygous tall parent, tt for the homozygous short parent and Tt for the heterozygous offspring.
When a tall homozygous plant was crossed with a short homozygous plant the F1 offspring were all tall. No short plants were present in the F1 generation. Which principle does this situation represent?
This situation represents Mendel's principle of dominance. In this cross, the tall allele is dominant over the short allele, resulting in all F1 offspring exhibiting the tall phenotype. Since both parent plants are homozygous, the F1 generation inherits one tall allele from the tall parent and one short allele from the short parent, but only the dominant tall trait is expressed.
How many of the offspring are homozygous?
When you say homozygous, you're talking about genes. It's almost impossible, or not known, if a human has had genes of all homozygousity.
What percentage of genotypes would most likely be found in the f1 generation offspring?
If the parent generation consisted of a homozygous dominant parent and a homozygous recessive parent, then the F1 generation would be 100% heterozygous.
What do the letters outside the punnett square stand for?
The letters on the outside of the Punnett square stand for the alleles of each parent. One parent's alleles are written across the top of the square, and the other parent's alleles are written along the left side of the square. The pairs of alleles inside the square represent all the possible genotypes for their offspring.
If a tall parent is homozygous how would you represent that in letters?
your moms ballsac is on fire put it out with gasoline

What kind of offspring will a homozygous tall plant and a homozygous short plant have?
Presuming tall is a dominant allele (the 2nd parent is heterozygous and "tall" is it's phenotype), then the square would be as follows: Let T be the dominant gene for tall, and thus every genotype containing this (TT, or Tt) would produce a tall plant. Let t be recessive, and in the absence of T (tt) causes a plant to be small. So the homozygous tall parent would be TT, and the heterozygous tall parent would be Tt. So now you just have to cross them. During meiosis, every gamete from the TT genotype would contain a T allele. However, for the Tt genotype, there is equal chance each gamete will contain EITHER a T or a t. So the square would be: xxTxxT TxTTxTT txTtxTt As you can see, 2 out of the 4 offspring have a Tt genotype (heterozygous), so this translates to a 1/2 fraction, or 50%. Ignore the Xs in the table- if i just used spaces then all the letters crunched up on top of each other when i pressed save...it was the best i could do...:S
What is the probability that offspring of a cross between a homozygous recessive parent and a hetezyguous parent will be homozygous recessive?
In a cross between a homozygous recessive parent (AA) and a heterozygous parent (Aa), the possible genotypes of the offspring are 50% homozygous recessive (AA) and 50% heterozygous (Aa). Therefore, the probability that an offspring will be homozygous recessive is 50%.
How many of the offspring are homozygous?
When you say homozygous, you're talking about genes. It's almost impossible, or not known, if a human has had genes of all homozygousity.
What offspring would you get if you cross a homozygous tall plant with a homozygous short plant?
Homozygous dominant would be all Capital letters. Homozygous recessive would be all lower case letters. So...in basic color genetics for horses: A homozygous recessive horse would be aaee A homozygous dominant horse would be AAEE
What are the letters for homozygous dominant heterozygous and homozygous recessive?
homozygous dominant means two alleles that are the same that are capital letters, heterozygous recessive means that to alleles are different BUT the same letters in lower case. (alleles for gender) EX: TT, Tt is homozygous dominant tt, tt is heterozgous recessive
WHAT DO THE LETTERS ON INSIDE OF THE PUNNET SQUARE STAND FOR?
Using Punnett Squares, you can predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous (purebred) tall pea plant and a homozygous (purebred) short pea plant.
What do the letters on the inside of the punnets square stand for?
Using Punnett Squares, you can predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous (purebred) tall pea plant and a homozygous (purebred) short pea plant.
What do the letters on the inside of the punnet square stands for?
Using Punnett Squares, you can predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous (purebred) tall pea plant and a homozygous (purebred) short pea plant.
A homozygous dominant parent will produce a gamete with?
They will produce gametes that are also homozygous.
