If a heterozygous plant with seed color (Rr) is crossed with a homozygous recessive plant (rr), what is the probability of each seed color being produced?

If you draw the chart that crosses which genes each offspring would receive, the answer would be Rr, rr, rr and rr. With that you would say there is a 1 in 4 chance of getting Rr and 3 in 4 chances of getting rr.

When a heterozygous plant (Rr) is crossed with a homozygous recessive plant (rr), the probabilities of the offspring's seed colors are approximately 33.3% for Rr (dominant) and 66.7% for rr (recessive). This result is based on a Punnett square analysis. Thus, the expected ratio is 1:2 for the respective seed colors.
