For pea plants, T represents a dominant allele for tall pea plants and t is the recessive allele for short pea plants. If two plants with the Tt genotype are crossed, what is the probability that offspring will exhibit the dominant trait?



75%

100%

25%

50%

Respuesta :

75% (TT,Tt,Tt,tt) hope that helps :)
Answer: 75%

Explanation:
Set up a Punnett square with both parents having the Tt genotype. The 4 offspring will have the genotypes TT, Tt, Tt, and tt.
Since T is dominant, all offspring that carry at least 1 copy of it will exhibit the trait. 3/4 of the offspring carry at least 1 copy of T, so 3/4 or 75% of the offspring will exhibit the dominant trait.
