Answer»

During sexual reproduction, one factor from each parent is taken to form a new pair in the offspring.

Crossing yellow and green seeds produced all yellow seeds because yellow is the dominant factor.

Sexual reproduction
Each parent contributes a gamete - a sex cell that has half of the normal DNA of a regular body cell. In males, the gametes are sperm and in females, the gametes are eggs. When these two gamete combine during fertilization, the result is a zygote, which then continues to develop into an embryo.

As given: round yellow seeds (RRYY) are dominant over wrinkled green seeds (rryy) So, the options are:-
i.) Rryy: will give round green seeds
ii.) rrYy: will give wrinkled yellow seeds
iii.) RrYy: will give round yellow seeds
iv.) RRYy: will also give round yellow seeds
