Pea plants have a recessive trait for wrinkled peas (w). Plants with a dominant allele (W) do not have wrinkled peas. A scientist crosses two pea plants, one that has wrinkled peas and one that does not. The plant that does not have wrinkled peas has the genotype WW. What are the chances that the offspring will have wrinkled peas.

Impossible. This is because the traits are not condiment or incompletely dominate, so the non-wrinkled Allele (W), which is dominate, would mask the wrinkled Allele (w), which is recessive.

Answer:

0% (Impossible)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there is NO genotype showing there is any possibility of having wrinkled peas as the offspring, the is no chance having wrinkled peas is an outcome.

Hope this helps!
