In snapdragon flowers, red flower color (R) is incompletely dominant to white flower color (W), making pink flowers when the heterozygote

genotype is inherited. If a red flower is crossed with a pink flower, what would be the percent of offspring expected to have white flowers in the
offspring?

Answer:

0%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can use a Punnett square.

R R

R RR RR

W RW RW

From this cross, there are two possible genotypes: RR and RW. The genotype RR results in a red flower, and the genotype RW results in a pink flower. Since the genotype WW is not possible with this cross, none of the offspring are expected to have white flowers.
