Chapter 2, Problem 11CONQ

Summary Introduction

To review:

The genotypic and phenotypic outcomes of the offspring after self-fertilization with regard to the seed color, and the yellow seed color being the dominant one.

Introduction:

Pea plants were the widely used for experiments by Mendel because they were easily grown, had a lot of variabilities, were capable of self-fertilization, and can be easily crossed. Phenotypic ratio is the relative number of offspring. The genetic make-up of an organism that describes the nature of each allele is the genotype.
