Answer:

The correct answer is:

100100100 percent (D)

Explanation:

To begin, let us express the alleles for each trait:

Blue flower (B) (dominant)

White flower (b) (recessive)

Parents:

1. True breeding blue flower (BB)

2. True breeding white flower (bb)

Now let us do the crossing:

           

                  b              b

B                 Bb           Bb

B                 Bb           Bb

From the cross, it is seen that out of 4 offspring, the genotypes were 'Bb' while are flowers that are phenotypically blue in color. Hence, all the offspring have blue flowers.

Answer: D. 100%

Explanation:

One parent is with is a true breeding blue flowering plants this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous dominant alleles (BB).

The other parent is a true breeding with flowering plant, this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous recessive alleles (BB).

When both parents are crossed, the possible genotype outcome is

B B  *  b b

Bb Bb Bb Bb

Therefore since the blue flowering plant allele (B) is dominant to the white flowering plant allele (b) the probability of an offspring outcome to be a blue flowering plant is 4/4 which is 100%.44

Answer is 100%

Why is it impossible for offspring to show recessive trait if one parent is homozygous for the dominant trait?
Luden [163]

If you make a punnet square out of this, there is no possibility to have a recessive trait because neither parents have it plus dominant is always going to overrule recessive traits.

Papessa [141]
A rabbit is a consumer because it gets its energy from eating other living organisms. A fungus is a decomposer because it gets its energy from breaking down the material of dead organisms or their products.
