Vedclass · Answer

(D) The dwarf pea plant is genetically homozygous recessive $(tt)$.Gibberellic acid treatment only affects the phenotype (height) by promoting stem elongation but does not change the genotype $(tt)$.When this treated plant $(tt)$ is crossed with a pure tall plant $(TT)$,the cross is $TT 	imes tt$.The resulting offspring in the $F_1$ generation will all have the genotype $Tt$.According to Mendel's Law of Dominance,the $T$ allele is dominant over the $t$ allele.Therefore,all offspring will exhibit the tall phenotype.

If a dwarf pea plant was treated with Gibberellic acid,it grew as tall as a pure tall pea plant. If this treated plant is crossed with a pure tall plant,then the phenotypic ratio of the offspring is likely to be:
