If a purple flower with the genotype #Pp # (P = purple ; p = white) self-pollinates, what is the ratio of purple offspring to white offspring?

Answer 1

#3/4# purple# 1/4# white

The flower is purple which means P is dominant(every time is in the flower will be purple).
There are four possibilities: PP pP Pp pp, in the first 3 it will be purple and in the last it will be white.

The ratio of purple offspring to white offspring in the self-pollination of a purple flower with the genotype Pp (P = purple; p = white) is 3:1. This is known as Mendel's Law of Segregation.
