When Mendel crossed heterozygotes for flower color and seed color,what proportion of the offspring had both dominant phenotypes?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mendel's law of independent assortment explains that alleles of different genes assort independently of one another during gamete formation. When crossing heterozygotes for two traits (e.g., flower color and seed color), the proportion of offspring that will exhibit both dominant phenotypes is 9/16. This is calculated by multiplying the probability of getting the dominant phenotype for one trait (3/4) by the probability of getting the dominant phenotype for the other trait (3/4), resulting in 3/4 * 3/4 = 9/16.
