- When a true-breeding pea plant with yellow seeds is crossed with a true-breeding pea plant with green seed, what color(s) will the offspring's seeds be?
All will be yellow.
All will be green.
Half will be yellow, half will be green. <<<

- If both pairs of alleles in a pair of genes are the same, then the organism is said to be ____ for that trait.
homologous <<<
homozygous

- Which trait is dominant, tallness or shortness?
Tallness <<<
Shortness
Neither, offspring would be "medium-sized"

- Which statement best describes the difference between a gene and an allele?
An allele is a section of a chromosome that typically contains the code for a particular protein. A gene is one of two or more alternative forms of an allele.
A gene is a section of a chromosome that typically contains the code for a particular protein. An allele is one of two or more alternative forms of a gene.
An allele is a section of DNA , which typically contains the code for a specific protein that determines a specific trait. A gene is a section of an allele.
