11. Given the pea plant cross: ( Tr Rr yy Aa x Ttrr YY Aa ), what is the expected frequency in the
progeny for the phenotype ( tall, round, yellow, axial) where the following alleles map to these
phenotypes: T= tall, 1 = dwarf, R = round, r = wrinkled; Y = yellow, y = green; A = axial, a = terminal.
T, R, Y, and A are dominant alleles.
A) 0.0 sp<0.1

H) 0.7 < p<0.8

Expert Solution

Step 1

Note: As Per Bartleby Guidelines For Remaining Answers Please Repost The Question.

Introduction:

Law of Dominance states that dominant alleles always mask the recessive alleles. In heterozygous condition always dominant allele is expressed in F1 generation. The characters that appear in an F1 generation are called as dominant alleles and which are not expressed are recessive.
