plants having wrinkled and green seeds. He found that only one type of

plants were self-pollinated with each other, then in addition to the seed
type of F1 generation, some new types of seed combinations were also
obtained in the F2 generation.

(b) What are the new possible combinations of seeds likely to be

observed in F2 generation ?
