Question

plate 2 there were 38 green leaved plants and 11 white leaved plants? What is the parental genotypes (given white is recessive)?

Answer 1

Aa and Aa (can be any other letter, but both need to be heterozygous)

Step-by-step explanation:

1 out of 4 offspring from the cross are white, so to verify that the genotypes of the parents are correct we can do 1÷4×49 (number of plants) and that equals 12.25, which is close enough to 11. So the genotypes of the parents are Aa and Aa.
