Answer:

B)Silent mutation

Explanation:

A Silent Mutation is defined as a point mutation that does not change the amino acid. This occurs because more than one codon can code for the same amino acid. So while the protein was changed in the end there were no large-scale effects to the organism. This is why it is called a "silent" mutation because you cannot tell anything changes and there are no side effects.

Answer:

The correct answer would be- 1:1:1:1.

Explanation:

According to the question the cross between the two pea plants with the genotype RrYy and rryy where R for round seeds and r for recessive form that expressed wrinkled seed character. The other character of this dihybrid cross is the color of the seds Y for green and y for yellow seeds.

The cross is shown in the image attached that suggests that phenotypic ratio would be 1:1:1:1 as RrYy, Rryy, rrYy, and rryy.

Thus, the correct answer is : 1:1:1:1.
