In cucumbers, green skin (G) is dominant to striped skin (g). If a farmer crosses a heterozygous (hybrid) cucumber with a homozygous (purebred) striped cucumber, what will the offspring look like?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Half will be green and half will be striped

Explanation:

Given green skin (G) is dominant to striped skin (g).

Cucumber 1 : Heterozygous (Gg)

Cucumber 2 : Homozygous striped (gg)

When Gg X gg :

     G      g

g   Gg   gg

g   Gg   gg

Half of the offspring will have Gg genotype so they will be green. Other half will have gg genotype so they will be striped.
