in pea plants, tallness (t) is dominant to shortness (t). what are the predicted percentages of the genotypes of the offspring if a homozygous short plant is crossed with a heterozygous tall plant?\no 25 percent tt, 75 percent tt\no 25 percent tall, 75 percent short\no 50 percent tt, 50 percent tt\no 50 percent tall, 50 percent short

in pea plants, tallness (t) is dominant to shortness (t). what are the predicted percentages of the genotypes of the offspring if a homozygous short plant is crossed with a heterozygous tall plant?\no 25 percent tt, 75 percent tt\no 25 percent tall, 75 percent short\no 50 percent tt, 50 percent tt\no 50 percent tall, 50 percent short

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Determine parent genotypes

Homozygous short is tt, heterozygous tall is Tt.

Step2: Set up Punnett - square

t t
T Tt Tt
t tt tt

Step3: Analyze genotypes

There are 2 Tt and 2 tt out of 4 offspring.

Step4: Calculate percentages

$\frac{2}{4} = 50%$ Tt and $\frac{2}{4}=50%$ tt.

Answer:

50 percent Tt, 50 percent tt
