Question

scott was looking at the results of a cross between red and white flowers. which is the most likely result of a cross that demonstrates incomplete dominance? 50% red flowers 25% white flowers 0% pink flowers 100% pink flowers

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Incomplete dominance is a form of inheritance where neither allele is completely dominant over the other. When a red - flowered plant (let's assume genotype \(RR\)) is crossed with a white - flowered plant (genotype \(rr\)) in a case of incomplete dominance, the heterozygous offspring (\(Rr\)) show a blended phenotype. Here, the blend of red and white results in pink. Using a Punnett square for \(RR\times rr\), all offspring will have the genotype \(Rr\).

Answer:

100% pink flowers
