a. An offspring will have smooth yellow peas if there is at least one and at least one in gene pairs for first and second trait, respectively. There are 9 such gene pairs. Since, each pairing is equally likely, probability of smooth yellow peas is
b. An offspring will have smooth green peas if it has at least one for first trait and gene pair for second trait. There are 3 such gene pairs. Since, each pairing is equally likely, probability of smooth green peas is
sc. An offspring will have wrinkled yellow peas if it has gene pair for first trait and at least one in gene pair for second trait. There are 3 such gene pairs. Since, each pairing is equally likely, probability of wrinkled green peas is
d. An offspring will have smooth green peas if it has gene pair for first trait and gene pair for second trait. There is 1 such
gene pair. Since, each pairing is equally likely, probability of wrinkled green
peas is1/16.
e. Let , be the event that offspring has smooth and yellow peas, respectively. and are independent.
Let and be the event that offspring carries one allele and offspring carries one allele and one allele, respectively.
is independent of
From solution to previous part, we know that
Since, all pairings are equally likely,
Since, and are dominant traits, we would have
