In pea plants, green color (G) is dominant to albino (g). If we cross two pea plants that are heterozygous for color, what would be the expected phenotype ratio of the offspring? Do the Punnett square and write the phenotypic ratio in the space below

Question
In pea plants, green color (G) is dominant to albino (g). If we cross two pea plants that are heterozygous for color, what would be the expected phenotype ratio of the offspring? Do the Punnett square and write the phenotypic ratio in the space below
Expert Solution
Step 1

According to given question-

The allele for green color is dominant and is designated by= G

The allele for albino color is recessive and is designated by= g

The cross between the parents which are heterozygous for color will have genotype= Gg x Gg
