a true-breeding plant with white flowers. This plant is crossed with one that has
white flowers (recessive). How many of the plants in the next generation will have
white flowers? (10 points)

3) In goats@-ecessive gene causes the goats to "faint" when they are startled. A
farmer breeds two goats (that have never fainted) and their first offspring fa ints
two days after its birth. What must the parent's genotypes have been? Show the
cross that resulted in this offspring. (10 points)

offspring that are silver. The color of blahblah birds is determined by just two
alleles. a) What pattern of inheritance does this illustrate? (2 points) b) What are

with orange fruits are crossed the following phenotypic ratios are present in the
offspring: 25% red fruit, 50% orange fruit, 25% yellow fruit. a) What pattern of
