An experiment was conducted to determine whether a deficiency of carbon dioxide in the soil affects the phenotype of peas. Liste

d below are the phenotype codes where 1=smooth-yellow​, 2=smooth-green​, 3=wrinkled-yellow​, and 4=wrinkled-green. Do the results make​ sense?

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The results of the phenotype do not make any sense in relation to the main aim of the experiment.

Smooth, wrinkled, yellow, green describe attributes relating to seed texture and flower colours in a result that simulates that of a plant breeding experiment, rather than a plant physiology experiment.

The determination of the effects of carbon dioxide deficiency in the soil on the phenotypes of peas is a physiological experiment. Hence, a result in the form of a plant breeding experiment would make not be relevant.

Answer:

Ss and ss

Explanation:

<em>Since the smooth trait (S) is dominant over the wrinkle trait (s), the genotype of the wrinkled pea parent is definitely </em><em>ss</em><em>.</em>

<em>Also, some of the progeny had wrinkled pea texture (ss). Each of the 2 wrinkled alleles must have been donated by each of the parent. It thus means that the smooth pea parent is heterozygous for the trait (</em><em>Ss</em><em>).</em>

Now, let us look at a cross between the two parents;

  Ss   x   ss

Progeny: Ss, Ss, ss, ss.

Phenotypically, 50% of the progeny are smooth peas while 50% are wrinkled.

Looking at the population of each of the phenotype resulting from the cross. 252:247 is approximately a 50:50 ratio.

Hence, the genotypes of the two parents are Ss and ss.
