Question

Please help me, I don't understand this

Answer 1

Answer:

4, based on the assumption that the R allele is dominant over the r allele, and that the T allele is dominant over the t allele.

Explanation:

Any bush with a dominant petal color allele (R) will have red petals. This includes Rr and RR.

Any bush with a dominant bush size allele (T) will have a tall bush. This includes Tt and TT.

The only way to acquire a short bush or pink petals is to have two recessive alleles together (tt, rr).

RRTT, RrTT, RRTt, and RrTt -> red petals with tall bushes

RRtt, Rrtt -> Red petals with short bushes

rrTt, rrTT -> pink petals and tall bushes

rrtt-> pink petals with short bushes.

These are the four phenotype variations possible in this dihybrid cross.
