Due to a recessively inherited trait, some plants fail to produce chlorophyll and therefore are white rather than green. If we locate a pea plant that is heterozygous for this trait, self-pollinate it, harvest the seeds, and then plant the seeds, what are the likely phenotypes of the resulting offspring?

Answer:

ANSWERED

Explanation:

If we denote the recessive allele of the gene as p and the dominant allele as P, the offspring will be of phenotypic ratio 3:1  those with chlorophyll to those without chlorophyll respectively. Genotypically, 25% would be homozygous for dominant allele, 50% heterozygous and 25% homozygous recessive.
