Problem N° 5 Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three of the traits that Mendel studied. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene and has dominant and recessive expression: Axial (flowers originate along the stems) is dominant over terminal (flowers on top of the stem). Long ("tall") stem is dominant over short stem ("dwarf"). Round seed is dominant over wrinkled. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three characters were allowed to self-fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to be as follows? a. homozygous for the three dominant traits b. homozygous for the three recessive traits c. heterozygous (for all three characteristics) d. homozygous for axial and tall, heterozygous for seed shape
