The answer to the question is 0 percent. In order to have wrinkled seeds, the offspring must inherit two recessive alleles from the parents. From the cross of RRYY and RrYy, there is no way for the offspring to have wrinkled seeds as one of the parents doesn't have the recessive gene for it, the RRYY parent. Because of this there is 0 percent probability of having an offspring that has wrinkled seeds and yellow seed color.

What are dominant traits?

Dominant traits are characters which always appear in every generation of offspring.

Assuming that Round seeds and yellow seed color are dominant to wrinkled seeds and green seed color. The offspring of the cross RRYY and RrYy is given below:

  • RRYY × RrYy = RRYY, RRYY, RrYy, RrYy.

The probability of having offspring that have wrinkled seeds and yellow seed color, rrYy or rrYY is zero.
