If a cross is made between two plants that are heterozygous for two traits (AaBb), then their offspring should follow the 9:3:3:1 ratio. In this case, A is the dominant allele for purple leaves, and B is the dominant allelle for curly roots. If the two parents were crossed to yield 320 progeny, approximately how many plants with purple leaves and curly roots would you expect? Group of answer choices a. 180 b.225 c.25 d.50

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
