Flower color in pea plants exhibits complete dominance as the purple allele is completely dominant over the white alleles.

A) Out of 276 pea plants, 273 have purple flowers. Assuming the population is in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, calculate the Expected allele frequencies.

B) A group of students counts 552 pea plants. Based on the expected allele frequencies, how many should have purple flowers and how many should have white flowers?

In a certain species of flower, the red allele for flower color (R) is completely dominant to the pink allele (r). A completely recessive allele (d) at a second gene on a different chromosome allows pigment (color) to be actually deposited within flowers; the lack of pigment results in white flowers.

A pea plant shows a dominant trait for flower color and therefore have purple flowers. These pea plants can be either homozygous dominant or heterozygous. In order to determine the genotype of this flower we should cross it with a pea plant that has the genotype

Complete dominance inheritance governs pea color. Yellow is dominant to green. The F1 generation of a cross all had the heterozygous genotype (Yy). A garden Yy plants were mated, and the F2 generation obtained 750 plants with yellow peas. SHOW YOUR WORK to determine how many green pea plants would you expect.

In Mendel's pea plants, the genes that code for flower color, seed color and seed shape are on 3 different chromosomes. For flower color, purple is dominant over white, yellow seeds are dominant over green and round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds. If you crossed two parents who were heterozygous for all 3 genes, how many purple flowered, round and yellow seeded plants would you expect in the offspring generation? correct answer is 27/64 please show work thank you

In four-o-clock plants, red flower color (FR) is incompletely dominant over white flowers (FW) and the heterozygous individuals have pink flowers. a. If a red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant, what would be the genotypic and phenotypic frequencies of the F1? b. If two of the F1 individuals were crossed, what phenotypes and in what frequencies would appear in the F2?

Two pea plants are crossed. Both are heterozygous for purple blossom color, while one is homozygous for being short and the other is heterozygous for being tall. In pea plants, tall is dominant to short, and purple flowers are dominant to white. Fill out the table below for the probability of each possible phenotype. Report probability as a decimal rounded to four places (e.g. 0.1250, not 1/8 or 12.5%). Phenotype Probability tall purple short purple tall white short white In...
