The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of determining the percentage of heterozygous dominant offspring in the F1 generation from a cross between full green pods (FFGG) and constricted yellow pods (ffgg), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Parental Genotypes**: - The genotype for the full green pods is **FFGG** (homozygous dominant for both traits). - The genotype for the constricted yellow pods is **ffgg** (homozygous recessive for both traits). 2. **Determine the Gametes Produced by Each Parent**: - The full green pods (FFGG) can only produce one type of gamete: **FG** (since both alleles are the same). - The constricted yellow pods (ffgg) can only produce one type of gamete: **fg** (since both alleles are the same). 3. **Perform the Cross**: - When we cross the gametes from both parents, we get: - FGGG x fg = FfGg - This means that all offspring will have the genotype **FfGg**. 4. **Determine the Genotype of the Offspring**: - The genotype **FfGg** indicates that the offspring are heterozygous for both traits (Ff for the pod shape and Gg for the pod color). 5. **Calculate the Percentage of Heterozygous Dominant Offspring**: - Since all offspring are FfGg, they are all heterozygous dominant. - Therefore, the percentage of heterozygous dominant offspring in the F1 generation is **100%**. ### Final Answer: The percentage of heterozygous dominant offspring in F1 is **100%**. ---
