Homozygous recessive; if 'r' stands for color of the seed and 's' for normal starch, then the genotype of this plant used in a test cross will be ( rrss ).

How do you identify the genotype?

normal sexual cross pollination - each parent plant contributes traits from its genotype (which are expressed as the phenotype)


The mating of an individual of unknown genotype with one that is homozygous recessive in order to determine the unknown genotype is a?

Test Cross.


What is a testcross in biology?

a cross between an organism whose genotype for a certain trait is unknown and an organism that is homozygous recessive for that trait so the unknown genotype can be determined from that of the offspring


What is a testcross?

A testcross is a genetic cross between an individual with a dominant phenotype but unknown genotype and a homozygous recessive individual. This cross is used to determine the genotype of the first individual by observing the phenotypic ratios of the offspring.


How can you do a genetic cross to identify the P genotype?

The genotype of the P (parent) generation can be done by crossing an offspring from the F1 (first filial) generation with one of the gametes from the P generation and then calculating the genotypic and phenotypic ratios. Such an experiment is called a back cross


When trying to find an unknown genotype you must perform a?

Perform a test cross. Cross the organism with an organism with a homozygous recessive genotype and use the phenotypes of the offspring and a Punnett square to figure out the unknown genotype.


What is the important of test cross?

to determine the unknown genotype.

Which genotype is used in a test cross?

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.


How can the unknown genotype of an individual with a dominate phenotype be determined?

A test cross.


To perform a testcross scientists cross an organism with an unknown genotype with what kind of organism?

To perform a testcross, scientists cross the organism with an unknown genotype with a homozygous recessive organism. This allows researchers to determine the unknown genotype based on the phenotypic ratios observed in the offspring.
