A. 1/4 pink

B. all pink

D. 3/4 pink

E. no pink

In snapdragons, red × white produce pink. What proportion of pink flowers are expected from the cross pink ?
Your cross grid should look like this because both parents have one white allele and one red allele.



-----|--R-----|---W

R---|--RR---|---RW

W--|--RW--|----WW





The Ratio is likely to be 1:1:2



The answer is B, 1/2 will be pink.
Reply:you mean the cross between two pinks then C is the answer. If you meant a red x white cross then B.
Reply:Crossing pink with pink?



Two possible answers: If we assume that the gene codes for both red and white (but that both produce pink) then it's



Answer A (traditional)

rw X rw

1/4 red (rr)

1/4 white (ww)

1/2 pink (rw)



Answer B

Be careful though, because in some cases involving color, subsequent generations do not revert.
