Question

In summer , white fruit(W) is dominant to yellow (w) and the

flat fruit (F) is dominant to round fruits( f) , what gametes will
be produce by plant with the following genotypes ?

Answer 1

A plant with the genotype WwFf would produce four types of gametes: WF, Wf, wF, wf, with each gamete receiving one allele for each gene according to Mendelian genetics.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question deals with Mendelian genetics, specifically the gametes produced by plants with certain genotypes for fruit color and shape in summer squash. When white fruit (W) is dominant to yellow fruit (w) and flat fruit (F) is dominant to round fruits (f), a plant with a given genotype will produce gametes based on the combinations of alleles it possesses.

For example, a plant with a WwFf genotype will produce gametes that have the following combinations: WF, Wf, wF, wf. Each gamete will receive one allele from each gene pair. This assortment of alleles follows the principles of Mendelian genetics in which the alleles for each trait segregate independently during gamete formation. Therefore, if a plant is heterozygous for both traits (WwFf), it will produce four different gamete types in equal proportions.
