In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant over white flowers (p). Being tall (T) is dominant over being short (t). What proportion of the offspring would you expect to have purple flowers and be short, if you crossed a plant heterozygous for both traits with a plant that was homozygous purple and short?

A plant with flowers with pink petals is crossed to another plant with flowers with pink petals. The offspring include 15 plants with pink flowers, 7 plants with red flowers, and 8 plants with white flowers. If you then crossed a pink-flowered plant to a plant with red flowers, what types of offspring, and in what proportions, would you expect to see? Feel free to include Punnett square(s) to help explain your answer.
In snapdragons, flower color shows incomplete dominance. Plant height (tall or short) is a standard dominant/recessive trait. If you cross a red-flowered, heterozygous tall plant with a white-flowered, heterozygous tall plant, how many of the offspring would you expect to have pink flowers and be short?
. Flower color in lilies is controlled by an incomplete dominance pattern. Suppose you have two lily plants, both with orange flowers. You cross the two plants and are surprised to find that, half the offspring are orange, but ~25% are red and ~25% are yellow. You decide that you like the red flowers and would like to make more. a) What cross would you perform to produce the most red flowered plants? b) Your mother decides she would like some of the orange flowered lilies. Which cross would give you the most orange flowered plants?
A cross between a homozyous purple-flowedr and a homozygous white flowerd pea plants, results in offsprings with purple flowers. Does this demonstrate complete or incomplete dominance?
Suppose you do a cross between two parents who are both heterozygous for two traits, such as petal shape (narrow or wide, narrow is dominant) and flower color (red or white, red is dominant). If there are 160 offspring, how many would you expect to have wide petals with red flowers?
In watermelons, solid green rind color (G) is dominant to stripes (g).A farmer crosses two watermelon plants that are heterozygous for rind color. What are the odds that the offspring will have solid green rinds?
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
If Purple (P) flowers is dominant over white (p) flowers, and tall (T) pea plants are dominant over short (t) pea plants, a cross between a heterozygous tall, heterozygous purple flowering plant with a heterozygous tall, white flowering plant would produce what fraction of homozygous Tall homozygous white flowering plants?
In a dihybrid cross, a true breeding short white flowered plant is crossed with a non-true breeding tall purple flowered plant. Both tall and purple are dominant traits. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring generation and what are the ratios of each?
In snapdragon plants, red flower color (CR) has incomplete dominance with white flower color (CW). If a plant that is homozygous for red flowers is crossed with a plant that is homozygous for white flowers, then what is the probability of producing offspring that have white flowers?
In a heterzygote cross between two peas, where A is dominant and a is recessive. In a pod with 4 peas, what is the probability that 3 or more of the peas are recessive.
In the Pea plant, tall plant height (T) is dominant over short (t). Pure-breeding tall and short plants are crossed. A) If the F1 is self-crossed and 400 F2 plants are raised, how many would be expected in each phenotypic class? B) How many of the F2 would be expected to be pure breeding when selfed?
