Question

16. A test cross was performed on a pea plant to determine its genotype. The offspring from the test cross were 50 percent green, round seeds and 50 percent green, wrinkled seeds. What is the genotype of the pea plant in question? 17. The allele for dry earwax (w) is recessive to the allele for wet earwax (W), and the allele for attached earlobes (u) is recessive to the allele for unattached earlobes (U). Determine the probability of producing an offspring with the genotype WwUu from two individuals heterozygous for both traits. 18. Two pea plants produce the following offspring: • 225 tall with purple flowers • 250 short with white flowers • 237 tall with white flowers • 241 short with purple flowers Which of the following parental pairs is more likely—two plants heterozygous for both genes, or one heterozygous for both genes and one homozygous recessive for both genes?
