Question

If you were a farmer and planted 5,000 seeds from hybrid pea plants with the same genotype-RrAa-barring any

weather-related problems, how many of each phenotype would you expect when the plants reached maturity?
(Use your phenotypic numbers from table 1 to help you with your calculations.) NOTE: You must show all of
your work for this problem!

Answer 1

3750 of the dominant allele. 1250 of the recessive. 50% hybrid, 25% pure dominant, and another 25% recessive.
