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?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
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.
Homozygous Tall (TT) x Heterozygous Tall (Tt)

Answer / mounika
1 out of 4 will be homozygous dominant as per law..so 50 out
of 200 will be homozygous dominent

Answer / viswa
150 out of 200 seeds are to be homozygous dominant
(TT)....according to mendle laws of cross over......

The dominant gene (G) produces green hair in mermaids and the recessive gene (g) produces blue hair. Webbed fingers are due to the dominant gene (F) and normal fingers are recessive (f). A mermaid who was heterozygous for hair color and who had normal fingers had a father with blue hair and webbed fingers and a mother with green hair and webbed fingers. What are the genotypes of all individuals (as completely as possible)?

In hogs a gene that produces a white belt around the animal's body is dominant over its allele for a uniform body. Another independent dominant gene produces fusion of the hoof (syndactyly). Suppose a uniformly colored hog homozygous for syndactyly is mated with a normal footed hog homozygous for the belted character. What would be the phenotype of the F1? If the F1's interbreed, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
In a cross AABBCC and aabbcc (P generation), what would be the frequency of AAbbCc in the F2 (assuming no linkage)?
