    Make a Punnett square for finding out the proportion of different genotypes in the progeny of a genetic cross between. (a) A pure tall (TT) pea plant with a pure dwarf (tt) pea plant. (b) red flower variety of pea (RR) with white flower variety of pea (rr) (a) A pure tall (TT) pea plant with a pure dwarf (tt) pea plant. (b) red flower variety of pea (RR) with white flower variety of pea (rr)
    Ans : (a)
    Genotype - 1(Homozygous tall) :2 (Heterozygous tall):1 (Homozygous dwarf)
    Phenotype - 3 (Tall) :1(Dwarf) (b)
