Question

In pea plants the trait for green sea pods ( G) is dominant over the trait for yellow seed pods (g) which cross will produce the maximum number of offspring with green sea pods?

Answer 1

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The cross that would produce the maximum number of offspring with green sea pods would be:

1. GG x GG, or

2. GG x gg

The first one would produce all green offspring with homzygous genotypes as follows:

     GG   x   GG

 GG   GG   GG   GG

The second cross would produce all green offspring with heterozygous genotypes as follows:

      GG   x   gg

   Gg   Gg   Gg   Gg
