AI Generated Solution

To understand why the F2 phenotypic and genotypic ratios are the same in a cross between red-flowered and white-flowered snapdragons, we need to delve into the concept of incomplete dominance and perform a genetic cross. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Parental Genotypes:** - Let’s denote the red-flowered snapdragon as having the genotype \( RR \) (homozygous dominant) and the white-flowered snapdragon as having the genotype \( rr \) (homozygous recessive). 2. **Perform the F1 Cross:** ...
