Which of the following outcomes would you expect from the following cross: Tall round (TTRR) x short, wrinkled (ttrr)?
All offspring short and wrinkled
Half tall, round and half short wrinkled
9 tall round, 3 short round, 3 tall wrinkled, 1 short wrinkled
All off spring Tall and round
The expected outcome from the cross of Tall round (TTRR) x short, wrinkled (ttrr) would be:
Half tall, round and half short, wrinkled.
To determine the possible outcomes from the cross between Tall round (TTRR) and short wrinkled (ttrr), we need to understand the principles of inheritance.
According to Mendel's laws of inheritance, genes can be either dominant or recessive. In this case, "Tall" and "round" are dominant traits, while "short" and "wrinkled" are recessive traits.
When two individuals with genotype TTRR and ttrr are crossed, the resulting offspring will have a genotype of TtRr. Since the dominant traits are expressed, the offspring will all be tall and round.
Therefore, the correct outcome is: All offspring Tall and round.
