Question

If a round, green seeded pea plant (RRyy) is crossed with wrinkled, yellow seeded pea plant, (rrYY) the seeds produced in the F1 generation are

• A. round and yellow
• B. round and green
• C. wrinkled and green
• D. wrinkled and yellow

Answer 1

The correct option is A

round and yellow

The correct option is A.

Explanation of the correct option:

1. In this case, we will see a cross between the parent plant round green seeded plant is crossed with the wrinkled yellow seeded plant.
2. Parent: Round green (RRyy) x wrinkled yellow(rrYY)
3. Gametes: Ry X rY
4. F1 generation: RrYy
5. This genotype gives the characteristics of Round and yellow seed in the F1 generation.

Final answer: If a round, green seeded pea plant (RRyy) is crossed with a wrinkled, yellow seeded pea plant, (rrYY) the seeds produced in the F1 generation are round and yellow.
