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 Posted / 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.
Homozygous Tall (TT) x Heterozygous Tall (Tt)

The ABO blood system has been employed to settle cases of disputed paternity. Suppose, as an expert in genetics, you are called to testify in a case where the mother is type A, the child is type O and the alleged father is type B. How would you respond to the following statements of the attornies: a. "Since the mother has type A, the type O of the child must have come from the father and since my client is type B, he obviously could not have fatered the child." Made by the attorney of the alleged father. b. "Further tests revealed that this man is heterozygous and therefore he must be the father." Made by the mother's attorney.
