Question

In a dihybrid cross, in which both parents are heterozygous for both traits, what is the probability that the offspring will exhibit both of the dominant phenotypes?

Answer 1

In a dihybrid cross, in which both parents are heterozygous for both traits, the probability that the offspring will exhibit both of the dominant phenotypes is 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above analogy, we could say;

heterozygous (Bb) X (Bb)= this will give us BB, Bb, Bb, and bb

BB= homozygous dominant,

Bb= Heterozygous dominant

bb= Homozygous recessive

From the above result, 75% of the dominant phenotypes is produced while 25% of the recessive phenotypes is produced
