In tomato plants,the gene for purple stem(P) Is dominant for green stem (p)and the gene for red fruit ( R) is dominant to its allele for yellow fruit (r ).If two tomato plants heterozygous for both the traits are crossed ,state what proportion of the offspring are expected to have :
(a)purple stems and yellow fruits. (b)Green stems and red fruits (c )Purple stems and red fruits.

To solve the problem regarding the inheritance of traits in tomato plants, we will perform a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous plants for both traits: stem color (purple and green) and fruit color (red and yellow). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Alleles:** - The gene for purple stem is represented as **P** (dominant) and green stem as **p** (recessive). - The gene for red fruit is represented as **R** (dominant) and yellow fruit as **r** (recessive). ...
