In pea plants, the dominant S allele produces round peas and the recessive s allele produces wrinkled peas when homozygous. The dominant C allele gives yellow peas and the recessive c allele gives green peas when homozygous. The following test cross is set up between two pea plants: SsCc x sscc. 213 42 50 208 yellow Given the progeny phenotypes above, what was the arrangement of alleles in the heterozygous parent?

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.
