Question
four oclock flowers, flower color is controlled by a single gene with two alleles. the r allele produces red flower color, and the w allele produces white flower color. these alleles display complete dominance, and when both alleles are present, the flowers appear pink. remember, when dealing with incomplete dominance, only capitals are used for the two traits because either allele exerts dominance over the other. match each of the following genotypes to the correct color of flowers. one genotype description has two possible phenotypic outcomes. drag each item on the left to its matching item on the right. note that every item may not have a match, while some items may have more than one match. rr+ homozygous+ rw+ wr+ heterozygous+ ww+ red flowers rr homozygous white flowers ww pink flowers rw wr heterozygous
In incomplete - dominance, the $R$ allele gives red color and $W$ allele gives white color. Homozygous $RR$ has two $R$ alleles, resulting in red flowers. Homozygous $WW$ has two $W$ alleles, resulting in white flowers. Heterozygous $RW$ (or $WR$) has one $R$ and one $W$ allele, and due to incomplete - dominance, the flowers are pink.
