Referring to Mendel's data, in terms of seed color, yellow seeds are dominant over green. Round shape on the other hand, dominates wrinkled seeds. While, inflated pod shapes are dominant over constricted. If a hypothetical cross occurs between a plant with yellow, round seeds in a constricted pod (heterozygous for seed color and shape) with another plant that has yellow with wrinkled seeds in an inflated pod (pure breed for all traits), what fraction of the offspring would be heterozygous for at least two of the three characteristics?

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.

Question

Referring to Mendel's data, in terms of seed color, yellow seeds are
dominant over green. Round shape on the other hand, dominates
wrinkled seeds. While, inflated pod shapes are dominant over
constricted.
If a hypothetical cross occurs between a plant with yellow, round
seeds in a constricted pod (heterozygous for seed color and shape)
with another plant that has yellow with wrinkled seeds in an
inflated pod (pure breed for all traits), what fraction of the
offspring would be heterozygous for at least two of the three
characteristics?

More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross: P1: AABBCCDDEE aabbccddee F1: AaBbCcDdEe (self-cross to get F2) What is the chance of getting an AaBBccDdee individual in the F2 generation?
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring.

Mendelian ratios are modified in crosses involving autotetraploids.Assume that one plant expresses the dominant trait greenseeds and is homozygous (WWWW). This plant is crossed to onewith white seeds that is also homozygous (wwww). If only onedominant allele is sufficient to produce green seeds, predict theF1 and F2 results of such a cross. Assume that synapsis betweenchromosome pairs is random during meiosis.

A cross was made between two pea plants, TtAa and Ttaa, whereT = tall, t = dwarf, A = axial, and a = terminal. What is the probability that the first three offspring will be tall with axial flowers or dwarf with terminal flowers and the fourth offspring will be tall with axial flowers?

In pea plants, flowers may either be axial (A) or terminal (a) flower and purple (P) or white (p). Progenies from a dihybrid cross are as follows: 51 axial purple 75 axial white84 terminal purple 64 terminal white Conduct a COMPLETE chi-square Test to determine of these results support the hypothesis that the parent plant is heterozygous for both traits.
If Purple (P) flowers is dominant over white (p) flowers, and tall (T) pea plants are dominant over short (t) pea plants, a cross between a heterozygous tall, heterozygous purple flowering plant with a heterozygous tall, white flowering plant would produce what fraction of homozygous Tall homozygous white flowering plants?

In tomatoes, regular leaves (L) are multilobed and serrated and potato leaves (l) are broad, smooth, and single (Image 1). Red fruit (F) is dominant to yellow fruit (f). A cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1individuals are then crossed with one another. Complete a Punnett square to determine the expected F2 progeny on the basis of Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the alleles for one gene segregate independently of the alleles for other genes during gamete formation.
