A dihybrid cross displays the possible allele combinations for two different traits. In pea plants, seed can be yellow (dominant) or green (recessive). They can also have a smooth seed texture (dominant) or wrinkled (recessive). Using the diagram below, identify the probability (as a percentage) of offspring with YELLOW SEEDS and WRINKLED TEXTURE.

3/16 = 18.75%

Reason: In a YyRr × YyRr dihybrid cross rr (wrinkled) occurs 1/4 of the time and Y_ (yellow) occurs 3/4 of the time. Multiply: (3/4)*(1/4) = 3/16 = 18.75%.
