Monk Mendel is working out in his garden planting yet more peas. He notices that the seeds he is removing from the pods are not the same color as the pod. Most of the green pods have green seeds, and most of the yellow pods have green seeds, but every once in a while there is a green pod with yellow seeds and a yellow pod with yellow seeds. Gregor decides that he will cross the plant green seeds from the green pod and yellow seeds from the yellow pod.
1. Is this a monohybrid or dihybrid cross ?
2. Which trait is dominant for seed color ?
3. Which trait is dominant for pod color ?
4. What are the parent phenotypes ?
5. What are the parent genotypes ?
6. Do the cross to find the F1 generation phenotypic ratio.
7. Choose 2 individuals from the F1 generation and allow them to self fertilize...What is the phenotypic ration of the F2 generation ?
