probability of short legs in the offspring of parents that are both heterozygous for the trait?

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] or 25%

Explanation:

Heterozygous means that the organism has different alleles (L1)

Draw a punnet square:

       L           1

L     LL         L1

1      L1          11

11 is the allele for short legs so 1 in 4 of the outcomes will lead to an offspring with short legs
