Mendel discovered that the allele for green seed pods (G) is dominant to the allele for yellow seed pods (g). He crossed true-breeding (homozygous) parental plants with green (GG) and yellow (gg) seed pods to produce an F1 generation, all of which were heterozygous (Gg) with green seed pods. He then crossed two of these F1 plants to produce an F2 generation.

Drag the genotypes and phenotypes from the left to correctly complete the Punnett square for the F2 generation. Drag only blue labels to blue targets and pink labels to pink targets. Labels may be used more than once.
a. GG
b. Green
c. Gg
d. green
e. Gg
f. green
g. gg
h. yellow

Answer:

See attached Punnett

Step-by-step explanation:

The F1 generation plants all have the gentoype Gg. If we cross them, the cross would be

Gg x Gg

Now all you need to do is put the gametes of each and do the cross:

G g

G GG Gg

g Gg gg

Based on that, you would need to drag:

1 x GG

2 x Gg

1 x gg

Since dominant is Green and Yellow is recessive, all with the capital letter G, would have a phenotype of Green seed pods. The one with two smalll letter gg, will have yellow seed pods. Recessive characteristics can only be expressed if you have two recessive alleles.

GG = Green pods

Gg = Green pods

gg = yellow pods
