A stem cell is a generic cell that can make exact copies of
itself indefinitely. It is a precursor cell that has the
ability to make specialized cells for various tissues in
the body (such as heart muscle, brain tissue and liver
tissue).
Stem cell research is expected to impact advances in curing
diseases such as Alzheimer?s and Parkinson?s disease,
diabetes, spinal cord injury, heart disease, stroke,
arthritis, and cancer.

Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?
