In pea plants, round seeds are dominant and wrinkled seeds are recessive. A pea plant with round seeds was pollinated with a pea plant with wrinkled seeds. The offspring produced round seeds. One of the offspring was mated with a pea plant with heterozygous genes for round seeds. What are the chances that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds? There is a percent chance that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds.

If the offspring formed which was a round pea is heterozygous and mated with pea plant with heterozygous genes then there are 3 posibilities
1. The offspring can be rounded with homozygous genes
2.the round pea with heterozygous genes
3. The wrinkled pea with homozygous genes .
hence by estimating ratio of wrinkled pea from these possibilities you can calculate the % chance of getting a wrinkled pea
