In a cross between two carriers for albinism (Aa x Aa), the expected genotype ratio is 1 AA (normal), 2 Aa (carriers), and 1 aa (albino). This means that 25% of the offspring (1 out of 4) would be expected to exhibit albinism. Therefore, if 500 plants resulted from the cross, approximately 125 of them (25% of 500) would be expected to show albinism.
