    50% Ww with white wings

    50% ww with yellow wings

    Explanation:

    In cabbage butterflies, White wings are dominant to yellow wings. If a Ww butterfly is crossed with a ww butterfly, what are the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring and the percent chance for each?

    White wing allele is W, since it is dominant over yellow wing allele which is w.

    Ww is crossed with ww:

    Ww x ww = Ww, Ww, ww and ww

    Genotype of offspring: 2 Ww (white wings) and 2 ww (yellow wings)

    50% of the offspring will genotype Ww with white wings while the remaining 50% will have genotype ww with yellow wings.
