Answer:

The correct answer would be - 25%.

Explanation:

It is given that the Blue flower is dominant over the yellow flower which means Blue is represented by allele B here and allele b for yellow and Bb is a heterozygous case with a blue phenotypic character. Similarly, the Tall plant is dominant over short and represented by T and t respectively.

BbTt is a heterozygous condition and a cross with itself will produce :

Gametes: BT Bt bT and bt

          BT       Bt       bT       bt

BT     BBTT   BBTt   BbTT   BbTt

Bt      BBTt    BBtt    BbTt   Bbtt

bT     BbTT   BbTt    bbTT   bbTt

bt      BbTt     Bbtt    bbTt     bbtt

Here 4 out of 16 offspring are heterozygous for both traits represented by bold alphabets. Therefore the correct answer is 25%

Based on what you were told about the reproduction of the snails, write a question that could be researched
ValentinkaMS [17]

Question: If they aren't hermaphrodites, can they still be male and female at the same time?


Facts: Different snails reproduce differently, but most snails are "hermaphrodites." Being a hermaphrodite means that any given snail can be both male and female at the same time. This can make it a lot easier for snails to reproduce and quickly make a whole lot of snails! Some hermaphrodite snails do not need another snail to reproduce, but can make more snails all by themselves (this is called asexual reproduction). Other snails are hermaphrodites but still need another snail to reproduce (this is called sexual reproduction). There are also some snails that aren't hermaphrodites, but are either male or female, and must find a snail of the opposite sex to breed with.
