Answer and work:arrow_forwarda) An F1 x F1 self-fertilization gives a 9:7 phenotypic ratio in the F2. What phenotypic ratio would you expect if you test-crossed the F1? b) An F1 x F1 self-fertilization gives a 9:3:4 phenotypic ratio in the F2. What phenotypic ratio would you expect if you test-crossed the F1? c) An F1 x F1 self-fertilization gives a 15:1 phenotypic ratio in the F2.
