The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of determining the ratio of offspring produced by crossing pure red and pure white flowered pea plants, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Genotypes of the Parent Plants**: - The genotype of the pure red flowered pea plant is **RR** (homozygous dominant). - The genotype of the pure white flowered pea plant is **rr** (homozygous recessive). 2. **Determine the F1 Generation**: - When we cross the two parent plants (RR x rr), all offspring in the F1 generation will have the genotype **Rr**. - Since the allele for red flowers (R) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), all F1 plants will express the red flower phenotype. 3. **Calculate the Number of Offspring**: - According to the problem, a total of **120 plants** are produced from this cross. 4. **Determine the Phenotypic Ratio**: - Since all F1 plants are red flowered (Rr), the phenotypic ratio of the offspring will be: - **Red flowers : White flowers = 120 : 0**. - This means all 120 plants are red, and there are no white flowered plants. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the ratio of offspring will be **all red**. ### Final Answer: The ratio of offspring will be **all red**. ---
