The gene for tallness (T) is dominant over the gene for
shortness (t) in pea plants. A homozygous dominant pea
plant is crossed with a heterozygous pea plant, and 200
seeds are produced. Approximately how many of these seeds
can be expected to produce plants that are homozygous
dominant?

Answer / vishal agrawal

when a homozygous tall (TT) is crossed with heterozygous
tall (Tt) they will segregate in ratio of 1:1. Thus there
would be nearly 100 seeds of each type. thus the no. of
seeds for homozygous dominant would be 100.

The weight of the fruit of one variety of squashes is determined by three pairs of genes: AABBCC produces 6 lb squashes and aabbcc produces 3 lb squashes. Each dominant allele adds 1/2 lb tothe base weight (3 lb). If a pure breeding line that produced 6 lb squashes was crossed with a pure breeding line that produced 3 lb squashes, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 and the F2?
