If sixteen offspring are produced in the cross shown how many of from would be expected to have wrinkled yellow peas?

The cross in question is likely a dihybrid cross between pea plants, involving the genes for seed shape (R/r) and seed color (Y/y). In a dihybrid cross, the offspring will exhibit a variety of phenotypes due to the independent assortment of alleles during gamete formation.

Based on the information provided, the expected phenotypic ratio for the offspring is 9:3:3:1. This ratio can be broken down as follows:

- 9/16 of the offspring will have round yellow peas (RRYY or RrYY)

- 3/16 of the offspring will have round green peas (RrYy or RrYY)

- 3/16 of the offspring will have wrinkled yellow peas (rrYY or rrYy)

- 1/16 of the offspring will have wrinkled green peas (rryy)

Therefore, out of sixteen offspring, we would expect 3 of them to have wrinkled yellow peas.
