Homozygous cross offspring genotype?

All offspring have the same genotype, heterozygous (Tt).

Study Notes

Monohybrid Crosses

  • A monohybrid cross is a cross between two plants that differ in one trait, such as seed shape.
  • The cross between a round seed (RR) and a wrinkled seed (rr) produces all hybrid offspring (Rr) in the F1 generation.
  • The F2 generation has a genotypic ratio of 1:2:1 (RR:Rr:rr) and a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 (round:wrinkled).

F1 and F2 Generations

  • The F1 generation is the offspring of a cross between two parents with different traits.
  • The F2 generation is the offspring of a cross between two F1 individuals.

Genotype and Phenotype

  • Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an individual (e.g., RR, Rr, rr).
  • Phenotype refers to the physical characteristics of an individual (e.g., round or wrinkled seeds).

Law of Dominance

  • The law of dominance states that when two parents with different traits are crossed, only one form of the trait will appear in the next generation.
  • The dominant trait will be expressed in the phenotype.

Law of Segregation

  • The law of segregation states that during gamete formation, the two alleles responsible for a trait separate from each other.
  • Alleles for a trait are then recombined at fertilization, producing the genotype for the traits of the offspring.

Law of Independent Assortment

  • The law of independent assortment states that alleles for different traits are distributed to sex cells and offspring independently of one another.

Test Cross

  • A test cross is a cross between an individual of unknown genotype and a homozygous recessive individual.
  • The test cross is used to determine the genotype of an individual.

Dihybrid Cross

  • A dihybrid cross is a cross between two plants that differ in two traits.
  • The genotype and phenotype ratios of a dihybrid cross can be predicted using the laws of Mendel.
