Question

if a plant with purple petals (pp) is crossed with a plant with white petals (pp), what is the phenotype for the f1 generation? purple petals white petals a combination of purple and white petals

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the parental genotypes

The parent with purple petals has genotype PP and the parent with white petals has genotype pp.

Step2: Perform the cross

When PP is crossed with pp, all of the offspring in the F1 generation will have the genotype Pp.

Step3: Determine the phenotype

Since the allele for purple (P) is dominant over the allele for white (p), the phenotype of the F1 generation will be purple petals.

Answer:

purple petals
