Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
1. <u>Only one phenotype</u> is present in the F1 generation offspring. Since tallness was dominant over shortness, all the offspring in the F1 generation appeared tall.
2. <u>Two phenotypes </u>are present in the F2 generation - 9 tall and 3 short. The short trait reappeared at the F2 generation.
3. The genotype of the F1 offspring would be heterozygous. Assuming the purebred tall is AA and the purebred short is aa:
AA x aa
Aa Aa Aa Aa
All the F1 offspring will appear tall and their genotypes would be heterozygous.
4. Assuming that the allele for height is denoted with A (a), <u>the genotype of the purebred tall plant would be AA. </u>
5. In a similia vein, <u>the genotype of the purebred short plant would be aa. </u>
