A plant can produce either a white flower or a purple flower,with the purple flower allele being dominant.If a heterozygo us purple flower producing plant is matched with a white flower,what are the possible offspring?​​

Sagot :

Mendel concluded that pea traits like flower color were determined by separate units. From the results, Mendel proved that all traits do not blend. For instance, purple flowers mixed with white flowers did not produce pink flowers. Mendel concluded that traits like flower color must be determined by individual units.

Explanation: Let us consider a cross between two plants heterozygous for purple flowers. Each plant will produce two types of gametes, i.e. 50% gametes carrying (P) allele and 50 % carrying (p) allele. ... These plants will bear white flowers.
