Answer:
The answer is XX.
Explanation:
Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.
The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.
I hope this answer helps.
I think the answer its A because a Punnett square allows the prediction of the percentages of phenotypes in the offspring of a cross from known genotypes. A Punnett square can be used to determine a missing genotype based on the other genotypes involved in a cross.
