Answer a and ai

Waxy endosperm (wx), shrunken endosperm (sh), and yellow seedling (y) are encoded by
three recessive genes in corn that are linked on chromosome. A corn plant homozygous for all
three dominant alleles is crossed with a plant homozygous for all the recessive alleles. The
resulting F, are then testerossed with a plant homozygous for the recessive genes. The
progeny of the testcross are given below:
