There are two Pea Plants. Both are homozygous for
flower color. One has the dominant trait, purple flowers
and the other has the recessive trait, white flowers. They
are crossed and produce offspring. Then two of their
offspring are chosen at random and are crossed and
produce offspring of their own.
What is the chance that those offspring will be
heterozygous? Please show all of your work.
