Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A. The green trait is the dominant trait.

B. The offspring will inherit one gene from each parent.

C. The offspring will have both green and yellow seeds.

D. Each offspring will have a unique set of alleles.

The answer is optionB

Step-by-step explanation:

This question describes a monohybrid cross i.e. involving a single gene coding for seed colour in pea plant. One allele codes for green seeds and the other for yellow seeds.

Based on the question, a plant that has the same alleles for yellow seeds is crossed with another plant that has same alleles for green seeds. The offsprings produced will have two different alleles i.e. heterozygous, contributed by each parent.

Hence, the offsprings will inherit one form of the gene from each parent.
