Question

a mendelian experiment consisted of breeding tall pea plants bearing violet flowers, the progeny all bear white flowers. the progeny all bear violet flowers but almost half of them were short . this suggests that the genetic makeup of the parent can be depicted as:-

1)TTWW

2)TTww

3) TtWW

4)TtWw​

Answer 1

Answer: The answer to this question is option 3 that is TtWW

Explanation:

This is dihybrid cross of a plant involving two characters in the same plant.

As the progeny bloomed with violet flowers, therefore, the tall plants have genotype WW.

Again the plant is neither tall nor short, so the genotype is Tt.

Thus answer C is explained.
