Question

Gregor Mendel studied the inheritance of traits in pea plants. One trait he examined was the height of the plant. Pea plants with the

dominant T allele grew tall, and pea plants with the recessive allele 't' were short. According to Mendel's principles of heredity, if a
homozygous tall pea plant was crossed with a homozygous short pea plant, approximately how many of their offspring would have
the short phenotype?

Answer 1

Okay, so T is tall and t is short. Homozygous means that both alleles are the same. So, 0 offspring would have the short phenotype, they would all the heterozygous tall. Here's my punnett square to show you.
