4. In a cross between two heterozygous purple pea plants, ¼ of the offspring will be
white. This is because:
a. Genes assort independently on the metaphase plate
b. The plants still carry the gene for the recessive trait, it just is not expressed
c. The alleles segregate during meiosis and each parent can give either allele
in a gamete
d. Both B and C are correct
e. None of the above

Expert Solution

Step 1

The cross between two heterozygous purple pea plant can be explained with the help of Punnett Squares . It help in the determination of expected percentage of different genotypes in the offspring of parents. Heterozygous represent the presence of alleles at a particular gene locus.
