a. The plant will produce wrinkled peas.

b. The plant will produce smooth peas.

c. The plant will produce smooth peas.

Explanation:

The factor for producing smooth peas (we will call it "S" is dominant over the factor for producing wrinkled peas (which we will call "s"). Three plants (a, b, and c) have the following factors. Determine whether they will make smooth peas or wrinkled peas.

a. ss

b. Ss

c. SS

Should be the complete side of the question

Note: Dominant traits are those that are expressed or seen when a heterozygous genotype is present. Heterozygous is when a genotype possess two different alleles for a gene.

a. The plant will produce wrinkled peas. since the plant have the factor ss,

b. Ss means The plant will produce smooth peas.

This is because the S (The factor for producing smooth peas is dominant in the Pea. so it will overshadow the factor fro producing wrinkled pea.

c. The plant will produce smooth peas. Of course S is dominant
