Apea plant that has round seeds has the genotype rr. it is crossed with a pea plant that has wrinkled seeds and the genotype rr. what is the probability that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds? (a) 0 percent (b) 25 percent (c) 50 percent (d) 75 percent

Option C is correct.

Explanation:

Given the genotype of two parents-

Parent pea Plant I - Rr

Parent pea Plant II - rr

When these two parents are crossed with each other the following offspring are produced -

Rr

rRrrr

rRrrr

 R represents the round seed and it is a dominant trait.

r represents wrinkled seed and it is a recessive trait.

From the punnet square above, it is visible that out of four offspring 2 are recessive with genotype "rr"

hence, the  probability that the offspring will have wrinkled seeds is

%

Option C is correct
