A pea plant's seed shape is round. What can be said about this trait? A. It is a recessive trait.
B. It is the phenotype.
C. It is the genotype.
D. It is a hybrid.

A. It is a recessive trait.

Explanation: In pea plants, seed shape and seed color are controlled by genes located on different chromosomes. Seeds may be round (R) or wrinkled (r), with the allele for round seeds being dominant. The student is asked to predict the offsprings' pea shapes (both round and wrinkled; all round; all wrinkled; or can't predict). Because the allele that produces wrinkled peas is recessive, the offspring of this cross will all have wrinkled peas.
