Question

3 multiple choice 20 points if a pea plant has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for flower color, what will its flower color be? a blend of the two colors. both colors will show. the recessive color. the dominant color.

Explanation:

In genetics, when an organism has one dominant allele and one recessive allele (heterozygous) for a trait, the dominant allele's trait is expressed. For flower color in pea plants, the dominant allele will determine the flower color, and the recessive allele's trait is masked. A blend (incomplete dominance) or both colors showing (codominance) are different inheritance patterns, and recessive is only expressed in homozygous recessive. So the dominant color is shown.

Answer:

D. The dominant color. (Note: Assuming the options are labeled A - D as per typical multiple - choice, with the last option being "The dominant color". If the original options had different labeling, adjust accordingly, but based on the content, the correct option is the one stating "The dominant color".)
