The genotype of the offspring of the cross is Yy, and since yellow is dominant over red, the phenotype of the offspring is yellow fruit.

What will be the genotype and phenotype of the offspring?

The genotype is the inherited genetic traits from the parents.

The phenotype is the physical expression of the inherited genotype from the parents.

The parents are plant that is hom0zygous for red fruit that is crossed with a plant that has yellow fruit.

Assuming that Yellow is dominant over red.

Let the Y be yellow and y be red fruit color.

Genotype of the parents will be YY and yy.

The cross is given below:

YY x yy = Yy, Yy, Yy, Yy

The genotype of the offspring of the cross is Yy, and since yellow is dominant over red, the phenotype of the offspring is yellow fruit.

In conclusion, the genotype and phenotype of the offspring depends on that of the parents.
