Answer:

The proportion of the offspring from the cross PpRr × PpRr that are expected to have white flowers and wrinkled seeds is 1/16 or 6.25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The uppercase letter represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase represents the recessive allele. The dominant allele determines the phenotype (observable trait) when it is present. 

When you cross heterozygous individuals for each trait, each individual of the offspring has the probability of 1/6 of each combination of four alleles (two for each trait). Because the dominant allele determines the phenotype when it is present, the probability of dominant phenotypes is higher than recessive phenotypes.

Proportions of each phenotype in the offspring from the cross PpRr × PpRr are:

Purple flowers with round seeds: 9/16

Purple flowers with wrinkled seeds: 3/16 

White flowers with round seeds: 3/16

White flowers with wrinkled seeds: 1/16

The proportion of individuals with white flowers and wrinkled seeds is the lowest because they are homozygous recessive for both traits.

What is the value of t<br><br> HELP
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

t = 8°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of all the angles in a triangle is equal to 180°

Let's set up our equation => 18t + 36 = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides

18t = 144

t = 8

Thus, we have our answer
