Question

using the figure below, answer questions

1. which of the following genetic characteristics do these snapdragons exhibit?
2. what is the genotype of the offspring snapdragon in the figure above?

red (r) white (w)
all pink

Explanation:

1. For question 7: When a red snapdragon (R) and white snapdragon (W) produce all pink offspring, this shows incomplete dominance, where neither allele is fully dominant, resulting in a blended phenotype.
2. For the genotype question: Since the parents are homozygous red (RR) and homozygous white (WW), each parent passes one allele to offspring, creating heterozygous offspring with the genotype RW.

Answer:

1. Incomplete dominance

• Genotype of offspring: RW
