Question

rryy x rryy (round and yellow are dominant, green and wrinkly are recessive) considering the p1 above, what are the chances that the f1 generation will have green, wrinkly seeds? 1/8 1/2 1/32 1/16

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the probability of green seeds

Since \(Rr\times Rr\), the probability of getting \(rr\) (green, recessive) is \(\frac{1}{4}\).

Step2: Determine the probability of wrinkly seeds

Since \(Yy\times Yy\), the probability of getting \(yy\) (wrinkly, recessive) is \(\frac{1}{4}\).

Step3: Use the multiplication rule

The probability of both events (green and wrinkly) occurring simultaneously is \(\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{16}\)
