b. plants with one yellow seed for every green seed.
c. only plants with the Yy.
d. only plants that produce yellow seeds.
e. Both c and d are correct.

Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What traits would you expect to observe in the F1 offspring if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green.a. only yellow-green seedsb. only yellow seedsc. 1:1 yellow seeds:green seedsd. 1:3 green seeds:yellow seeds
A particular flower can be purple, blue, red or white. Two different pure-breeding white plants are crossed and the F1 are then crossed to produce an F2 generation. What might a 9:7 phenotypic ratio in the F2 indicate?
A) additivity
B) codominance
C) recessive lethality
D) reciprocal recessive epistasis
E) dominant epistasis
Explain each answer.
In a trihybrid cross involving three traits where the parents are AaBbCc.
