Question

do #3 please

You are given a pea that produces round, yellow seeds (both dominant traits), but its genotype is unknown. You conduct a testcross to determine the genotype at both loci, and find that the offspring have the following ratios of phenotypes: % round, yellow, % round, green, % wrinkled, yellow, 4 wrinkled, green 1. What are all the possible genotypes of a round, yellow pea? Assume shape is controlled by the R locus, and color is controlled by the Y locus. 2. Break this down to the single gene level by answering the following questions: a. What is the proportion of round to wrinkled offspring? b. What is the proportion of yellow to green offspring? 3. Based on your knowledge of single-gene testcross outcomes, answer the following questions: a. What is the genotype of the unknown plant at the R (shape) locus? b. What is the genotype of the unknown plant at the Y (color) locus?
