To determine the phenotype for each genotype based on the information provided (yellow seed color is dominant to green), we can analyze each genotype:
-
YY - This genotype has two dominant alleles for yellow seed color. Therefore, the phenotype is yellow seeds.
-
Yy - This genotype has one dominant allele (Y) and one recessive allele (y). Since yellow is dominant, the phenotype is also yellow seeds.
-
yy - This genotype has two recessive alleles for green seed color. Therefore, the phenotype is green seeds.
Here are the phenotypes for each genotype:
- YY - yellow seeds
- Yy - yellow seeds
- yy - green seeds
