Answer: A) This is an example of incomplete dominance.

B) The genotype ratio of the offspring from the cross of a pink flower with a red flower would be 1:1 for the dominant allele for red color (R) and the recessive allele for white color (r) , resulting in a ratio of RR:Rr

C) The phenotype ratio of the offspring would be 1:1 for red flowers and pink flowers, as the dominant R allele results in red coloration and the recessive r allele results in the incompletely dominant pink coloration.

It's important to note that if you make a Punnett square it will help you to confirm the genotype and phenotype ratios.
