The Punnett square below shows possible combinations for the offspring in the diny parents that are heterozygous (RrYy) for pea shape and color. The parents' phenotype is round, yellow. Round is dominant for shape and is represented by an uppercase R. Yellow is dominant for color and is represented by a Y. Approximately what percentage of the offspring would have the phenotype round, yellow?

The Punnett square below shows possible combinations for the offspring in the dihybrid cross between two
parents that are heterozygous (RrYy) for pea shape and color. The parents' phenotype is round, yellow. Round is
dominant for shape and is represented by an uppercase R. Yellow is dominant for color and is represented by a Y.
Approximately what percentage of the offspring would have the phenotype round, yellow?
