Use Models Use a separate piece of paper draw a Punnett square to represent the
cross of two pea plants, each heterozygous for tallness (Tt). Use the Punnett square to
identify the probability of an offspring that is short.

you need to include what trait is dominant/recessive. if tt is the genotype for short, there would be a 25% probability of the offspring being short. however, if TT is the genotype for short, there would be a 75% probability of the offspring being short.

The probability of an offspring that is short, in the given case is - 25%

Heterozygous Cross

A heterozygous tall plant will have a genotype of Tt. T is mainly the dominant allele and will actually rule over the t allele, which is recessive. Each parent has a Tt genotype.

The gametes are produced by each parent are - T, and t

Then the cross: Tt X Tt

Punnett square:

    T       t

T   TT    Tt

t   Tt      tt

Thus, the tt which is recessive and expresses short plant is only 25%.
