To determine if a particular plant is homozygous or heterozygous, you would need to perform a test cross with a homozygous recessive individual. If the offspring display the recessive trait, the original plant would likely be heterozygous. If all offspring exhibit the dominant trait, the original plant would likely be homozygous dominant.
An offspring that has two different alleles for a trait is referred to as heterozygous. This means that one allele is inherited from one parent and a different allele is inherited from the other parent. For example, if one parent contributes an allele for brown eyes and the other contributes an allele for blue eyes, the offspring would be heterozygous for eye color. Heterozygous individuals may exhibit a dominant trait if one allele masks the expression of the other.
100% of the offspring in a cross between parents with the genotypes EE and EcEc will exhibit cataracts, as all their offspring will inherit at least one copy of the cataract-causing genotype, Ec.
When considering hybrid tall parents, the phenotypes of their offspring can vary depending on the genetic makeup of the parents. If both parents are homozygous tall (TT), all offspring will be tall (TT). If one parent is homozygous tall (TT) and the other is heterozygous tall (Tt), all offspring will also be tall (TT or Tt). However, if both parents are heterozygous (Tt), the offspring can exhibit three possible phenotypes: tall (TT or Tt) and short (tt), following a typical Mendelian ratio of 3 tall to 1 short.
When Tt plants (heterozygous for a trait) are pollinated, they can produce offspring with the genotypes TT, Tt, and tt. This follows the principles of Mendelian genetics, where the expected phenotypic ratio among the offspring would be 3:1 for dominant to recessive traits. Therefore, about 75% of the offspring will exhibit the dominant trait, while 25% will display the recessive trait.
The homozygous dominant individual can only pass on the dominant allele and the homozygous recessive individual can only pass on the recessive allele, therefore all offspring will be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.

In pea plants, the yellow color (Y) is typically dominant over the green color (y). If a heterozygous yellow pea plant (Yy) is crossed with a green pea plant (yy), the possible genotypes of the offspring would be 50% heterozygous yellow (Yy) and 50% homozygous green (yy). Therefore, the offspring would exhibit a 50% chance of being yellow and a 50% chance of being green.

By the process of hybridization, breeders cross two genetically different organisms. The purpose is to have the best traits of both parents.
When considering hybrid tall parents, the phenotypes of their offspring can vary depending on the genetic makeup of the parents. If both parents are homozygous tall (TT), all offspring will be tall (TT). If one parent is homozygous tall (TT) and the other is heterozygous tall (Tt), all offspring will also be tall (TT or Tt).

They are result of a cross among F 1 .
When Tt plants (heterozygous for a trait) are pollinated, they can produce offspring with the genotypes TT, Tt, and tt. This follows the principles of Mendelian genetics, where the expected phenotypic ratio among the offspring would be 3:1 for dominant to recessive traits. Therefore, about 75% of the offspring will exhibit the dominant trait, while 25% will display the recessive trait.
The individual is called a carrier. This means they carry a recessive allele for a genetic disorder, but they do not exhibit symptoms of the disorder themselves. However, they can pass on the recessive allele to their offspring.
In this cross, the homozygous dominant plant (AA) and the heterozygous plant (Aa) will produce offspring with genotypes of either AA or Aa. This means that all offspring will exhibit axial flowers, as axial is the dominant trait. Therefore, examining 200 offspring is reasonable to confirm the predicted 100% axial flower phenotype, as the large sample size allows for a more reliable observation of the expected outcomes.
