Question

QUESTION 2 In the example of snapdragon in Figure 4.1. The allele W is incompletely dormin has pink flowers, different from that of WW. What is the genetic explanation for this? O A Different amount of the gene product was produced in WW and Ww, respectively OB There are two genes, one gives red color and the other one gives pink color ° C. There are three alleles, for red, pink and white flower colors, respectively O D None of the above. ant over w, therefore, Ww QUESTION 3 If a pink snapdragon flower self fertilizes, what proportion of its offspring should be red? OA 1/4 O B. 2/4 O D. They will all be all pink

Explanation / Answer

2. A.Different amount of gene products are produced in WW and We respectively.

In WW genotype double amount of gene product is produced giving red colour. In Ww red and white is produced in half proportions giving pink colour.

3. A. 1/4.

Ww (pink) x Ww (pink)

Offsprings : WW (Red), Ww (pink), Ww (pink), ww (white).
