The cross of true-breeding yellow and green seeded pea plants can only produce yellow seeded progeny.

The cross of true-breeding yellow and green seeded pea plants can only produce yellow seeded progeny. Correct Answer True

Being homozygous, these parents will produce all heterozygous individuals. Since yellow is dominant over green seed, the phenotype can be seen in the heterozygous state too. Thus, all progeny will be yellow seeded.

In tomato plant, red (R) is dominant over yellow (r) for fruit color and purple (P) is dominant over green (p) for stem color. Fruit color and stem color assort independently. The number of progeny plants of different fruit/stem colors obtained from a mating are as follows:
Red fruit, purple stem - 145
Red fruit, green stem - 184
Yellow fruit, purple stem - 66
Yellow fruit, green stem - 47

A cross between pure tall pea plant with green pods and dwarf pea plant with yellow pods will produce how many short F2 plants out of 16?
In a Mendelian cross tall pea plants bearing violet flowers and short pea plants bearing white flowers were used. The progeny all bore violet flowers, but almost half of them were short, then what could be the genetic makeup of the tall parent
Directions: Seven different boxes A, B, C, D, E, F and G of different colours viz., Orange, Pink, Purple, Yellow, Blue, Red and Green are arranged one above the other. The box at the bottom of arrangement is numbered 1, the above box is numbered 2 and so on. B is immediately above E. More than two boxes are above the Orange box. The Yellow box is immediately below A. Only one box is between the Orange box and F. G is immediately above the Red box. Only one box is between B and the Pink box. Only two boxes are between the Pink and the Green box. Only two boxes are between the Yellow box and the Orange box. The Purple box is neither at the top nor at the bottom of the arrangement.B is above Pink box. C is immediately above F. Neither C nor G is a Yellow box. G is not a Orange box. Question: Which combination represents the position of C and its colour?

IV. Some yellow are black.
In a genetic cross between the genotypes WWXX and wwxx, the following phenotypic distributions were observed among the F2 progeny: WX, 562; wx, 158; Wx, 38; and wX, 42. Likewise, a cross between XXYY and xxyy yielded the following results: XY, 675; xy, 175; Xy, 72; and xY, 78. Similarly, a cross between WWYY and wwyy yielded: WY, 292; wy, 88; Wy, 12; and wY, 8. In all the genotypes, capital letters denote the dominant allele. Assume that the F1 progeny were self-fertilized in all three crosses. Also, double cross-over does not occur in this species. Which of the following is correct?
