Answer:

The phenotypic percentage of having yellow or green seeds is 50% for having either of the two colours

Explanation:

The crossing to determine the offsprings is shown in the image attached where we have two green (Yy) seeds and two yellow (yy) seeds as offsprings.

Thus, the phenotypic percentage of having yellow or green seeds is 50% for having either of the two colours.

Note, the dominant allele is "Y" while the recessive allele is "y". Thus, Yy would produce a yellow colour while yy would produce a green colour (as both mentioned in the question).

Also note that phenotype describes the outward properties/characteristics of an individual.

When determining the formula for a compound, it is important to know the valence numbers of each element. Suppose you want to wr

Damm [24]

Explanation:

The valency of the element is the measure of the combining power of the element with the other atoms when the element forms compounds or molecules.

Thus, valency has to known to find the how the elements have been combined and how many electrons have been lost, gain or shared.

Given that:

Element A has 3 valence electrons and element B has 2 valence electrons. To find the ionic compound, the valency of the cations and the anions are interchanged and are written in subscripts. Thus,

A B

Cross multiplying, we get the formula : $A_2B_3$
