Textbook Question
Chapter 11.1, Problem 1CC
DRAW IT Pea plants heterozygous for flower position and stem length (Aa Tt) are allowed to self-pollinate, and 400 of the resulting seeds are planted. Draw a Punnett square for this cross. How many offspring would be predicted to have terminal flowers and be dwarf? (See Table 11.1)

Let P = purple flowers and p = white, and T = tall plants and t = dwarf. What are the genotypes of the gametes that are
produced by a plant that is heterozygous for both traits? hint* This is a dihybrid self cross of an F1 heterozygous
generation.
