13.
(Problem 15a) In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. What are genotypes of the parents, the F1, and the F2?

(Problem 15a) In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. What are genotypes of the parents, the F1, and the F2?
A. Parents (Rr × Rr); F1 (Rr); F2 (RR, Rr, and rr) B. Parents (RR × RR); F1 (RR); F2 (RR) C. Parents (RR × Rr); F1 (Rr); F2 (RR, Rr, and rr) D. Parents (RR× rr); F1 (Rr); F2 (RR, Rr, and rr) E.

13.
(Problem 15a) In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. What are genotypes of the parents, the F1, and the F2?
D. Parents (RR× rr); F1 (Rr); F2 (RR, Rr, and rr)
Explanation:
P1 = RR x rr
F1=Rr
F2 = Rr x Rr = RR, Rr, rr
14. (Problem 15b) In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a backcross between the F1 and the orange parent.
D. Both A and B
Explanation:
P1 = RR x rr
F1=Rr
Rr x RR
= RR (orange), rR (orange)
15. (Problem 15c) In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of a backcross between the F1 and the cream parent.
E. Both B and C
Explanation:
P1 = RR x rr
F1=Rr
Rr x rr
= Rr (orange), rr (Cream)
