Imagine you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. what f1 offspring would you expect if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? yellow seed color is dominant over green.

a. 100 percent yellow-green seeds
b. 100 percent yellow seeds
c. 50 percent yellow, 50 percent green seeds
d. 25 percent green, 75 percent yellow seeds

B. 100 percent yellow seeds

Explanation:

When a gene has two alleles and one allele is dominant over the other, the dominant allele is expressed in the heterozygous state and the expression of the recessive allele is masked. According to the given information, the allele for yellow seed color is dominant over the allele for the green seed color.

Let's assume that the allele "Y" gives yellow color to the seeds while the allele "y" is responsible for green seed color. A cross between two pure breeding yellow seeded (YY) and green seeded (yy) plants would produce all the yellow seeded progeny with genotype "Yy".

YY (Yellow) x yy (green) = Yy (yellow)
