In pea plants, yellow seeds are dominant to green seeds, and the yellow and green alleles are represented with Y and y, respectively. Match each genotype with the correct description of alleles. Instructions YY Yy yy Homozygous for the green allele Heterozygous for the yellow and green alleles Homozygous for the yellow allele

Transcript

00:01 A p plant has yellow seeds.

00:04 The gene that codes for seed color is represented with the letter y.

00:08 The capital y allele is dominant, encodes for yellow seeds.

00:12 The lowercase y allele is recessive and encodes for green seeds.

00:17 What is the phenotype of this specific plant? so phenotype is the trait that you can actually see, what it looks like, what the genotype codes for that can actually be seen.

00:31 So, and it tells us that at the very beginning, it is yellow seeds, so the correct answer is d.

00:40 A p plant has yellow seeds.

00:43 The gene that codes for the seed color is represented with the letter y.

00:46 The capital y is dominant.

00:48 It codes for yellow seed.

00:50 The lower case y is recessive and encodes for green.

00:53 What is the genotype of this specific plant? so genotype is the actual letters that code for whatever.

01:04 Whatever the trait is.

01:06 So whatever alleles, which is represented by letters, that this plant actually has.

01:12 So the genotype is yellow seeds.

01:16 The capital y is dominant in codes for yellow seeds.

01:19 So the genotype needs to have at least one capital y and is represented by letters.

01:25 So the correct answer is a.

01:29 There are two variations of seed color with this type of pea plant, yellow and green.

01:34 Based on the information from the previous question, which allele is dominant, the yellow allel or the green allele? so it tells us, if we go back to question number eight, it tells us right here the y allel is dominant, and it codes for yellow seeds.

01:51 So which allel is dominant? that is the yellow allele.

01:59 Letter b.

02:01 You have a pea plant that is homozygous recessive for seed color...
