Question

In this example, a flower can either express the dominant trait (R), red petals, or the recessive trait (r), yellow petals. If two heterozygous flowers are crossed, what are the chances of there being an offspring with yellow petals?

25%

50%

75%

100%

Answer 1

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 2 flowers, start with 50% and 50% to make it simple. And since the red is dominant, it's stronger than yellow. So instead of them being equal chances, it's 75% to 25%. Hope this helped!
