Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A plant with the genotype Tt is crossed with a plant of unknown genotype that produces dwarf offspring. Determine the genotype of the unknown parent and explain your reasoning.
💡 Hint: Pay attention to the offspring's trait produced.
If TT and tt plants are crossed, what will be the genotypic and phenotypic ratios in the offspring? Discuss the implications for future generations if two Tt offspring are bred.
💡 Hint: Use a Punnett Square to visualize breeding outcomes.
