Question

the punnett square shows the result of a cross between a pea plant with genotype ii for inflated pods and a pea plant with genotype ii for constricted pods. what percentage of the offspring has inflated pods? 25% 50% 75% 100%

Explanation:

Step1: Count total offspring

There are 4 boxes in the Punnett - square, so the total number of offspring is 4.

Step2: Count offspring with inflated pods

The genotype for inflated pods is Ii. There are 2 Ii genotypes in the Punnett - square.

Step3: Calculate the percentage

The percentage of offspring with inflated pods is $\frac{2}{4}\times100\% = 50\%$.

Answer:

50%
