The possible offspring of green and yellow pods get their DNA from both parents, in equal amounts.

Here's a breakdown:

* Each parent contributes one chromosome from each pair to their offspring. These chromosomes carry the genetic information, including the genes that determine pod color.

* The offspring receives one chromosome from the green pod parent and one chromosome from the yellow pod parent.

* The combination of these chromosomes determines the offspring's pod color.

This is a simplified explanation, as the actual inheritance of pod color can be more complex depending on the specific genes involved. However, the fundamental principle remains the same: offspring inherit genetic information from both parents.
