    Pea plants with yellow color, which are heterozygous have a genotype Aa

    Pea plants with green color have a genotype aa (homozygous recessive).

    If we cross them:

    Parents: Aa x aa

    F1 generation: Aa Aa aa aa

    This means that half of the offspring will have yellow color (Aa genotype) and half of them will be green (aa genotype).
