Answer:

The answer is 300.

Explanation:

When we cross GG and gg, 100% of the offspring will be heterozygous. If the heterozygotes show 75% penetrance meaning that there is a 75% probability that the plant that has the G gene will actually show it in it's phenotype.

So that means that 75% of the offspring should have dark green color, which means that 300 plants will have the expected phenotype and 100 will not.

I hope this answer helps.

Can a human make amino acids or does he or she have to always get amino acids from eating food?
meriva
Humans get amino acids from protiens in the food we eat. As we digest the food, the enzymes in our stomach and small intestines break down proteins into small amino acids. So technically, we do not make amino acids, we get amino acids from eating food high in protiens.
