In pea plants, seed color can be either yellow (Y, dominant) or green (y, recessive), while seed shape can be either round (R, dominant) or wrinkled (r, recessive). If you were to cross two plants that were each heterozygous for both genes, what would be the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring?

Most of the feathers of erminette fowl are light colored, with an occasional black one, giving a fleckedappearance. A cross of two erminettes produced a totalof 48 progeny, consisting of 22 erminettes, 14 blacks,and 12 pure whites. What genetic basis of the erminette pattern is suggested?
