Question

How would I make a Punnett Square for this?:

In a monohybrid cross, if the gene for tall (T) plants was incompletely dominant over the gene for short (t) plants, what would be the predicted result of crossing an intermediate (Tt) plant with a tall (TT) plant?

Answer 1

Sorry, completely clueless.... for now. :)

Answer 2

@mahone331 do you know how?

Answer 3

yes, but give me a sec

Answer 4

Yes.

Answer 5

okay :-)

Answer 6

hope that helps :/

Answer 7

Oh wow, that's it? I thought it was more complicated because the answers I had to choose from were:
50 percent tall, 25 percent intermediate, 25 percent short

25 percent tall, 50 percent intermediate, 25 percent short

50 percent tall, 50 percent intermediate

100 percent intermediate

Answer 8

its A

Answer 9

I just read through all of this and mahone331 did all the work correctly and the answer IS A...

Answer 10

Okay thank you!

Answer 11

thnx :) @kaylamarie101 and ur welocme :)

Answer 12

No problem! :D

Answer 13

I'm seeing the answer as C. There are 2 TT and 2 Tt So 50% is Tall, 50% is intermediate. For the answer to be A it would be 50% (or 2) tall (TT) 25% (or 1) intermediate (Tt ) and 25% (or 1) short (tt)

Answer 14

@blues help please!

Answer 15

I could be wrong (after all I AM human) But I am nearly 100% sure that the answer would be "A"

Answer 16

The answer of A is an impossible answer. I'm 100% sure of that. Attached are the squares that would give the answers given.
The question already said that t is short and T is tall. TT being complete tall, Tt intermediate, which means tt would be complete short. It's impossible for any of these combinations of parents to produce the offspring needed to make choice A.
