Answer: The correct answer is -

In pea plants, yellow (Y) seed color is a dominant trait, and green seed color (y) is a recessive trait. Which resulting plant w
german

Answer: The correct answer is-

B. Yy

As per the information in the question,  yellow (depicted by Y allele) seed color is a dominant trait whereas green seed color is a recessive trait ( depicted by y allele).

A dominant trait always masks the expression of a recessive trait.

Presence of single dominant allele ( such as in Yy, which shows heterozygous dominant genotype) in the genotype can produce a dominant trait whereas recessive trait is only expressed when its genotype is homozygous recessive (such as yy that is both alleles should be recessive allele) .

A plant with genotype Yy will form two gametes that is Y and y.

When such plants are allowed to interbreed, there is a probability of 25% of producing green seeds in the next generation.
