5. In a plant in which flower color is produced by incomplete dominance, what is the probability that the first offspring would be red-flowered from a cross between two pink-flowered plants? Red is homozygous dominant, pink is heterozygous and white is homozygous recessive.

Flower color in roses is controlled by a single gene with two alleles. R=red and r=white. R is dominant to r. You cross a heterozygous red-flowered plant with a white-flowered plant. What is the probability that 3 of the next four offspring have white flowers?
Lainey R.
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?
Adi S.
Genetics Both of a certain pea plant’s parents had a gene for red and a gene for white flowers. (See Exercise 54 in Section 7.4.) If the offspring has red flowers, find the probability that it combined a gene for red and a gene for white (rather than 2 for red).
