A yellow seeded and violet flowered pea plant was crossed with a green seeded and white flowered pea plant. The progeny showed plants with four different phenotypes. The yellow seeded and violet flowered parent must be:
1. Double homozygous
2. Double heterozygous
3. Homozygous for seed colour and heterozygous for flower colour.
4. Heterozygous for seed colour and homozygous for flower colour.
