To solve this problem, we need to understand the inheritance pattern of flower color in Snapdragon plants.Snapdragon plants exhibit incomplete dominance in flower color inheritance.In incomplete dominance, the heterozygous phenotype is a blend of the two homozygous phenotypes.For Snapdragon plants: - The genotype for red flowers is RR. - The genotype for white flowers is WW. - The heterozygous genotype RW results in pink flowers.Given: A pink flowered Snapdragon plant (RW) is crossed with a red flowered Snapdragon plant (RR).Let's determine the possible genotypes and phenotypes of the progeny:The possible gametes from the pink flowered plant (RW) are R and W.The possible gametes from the red flowered plant (RR) are R.Using a Punnett square, we can determine the progeny:Crossing RW (pink) with RR (red): - Gametes: R, W from RW and R from RR. - Possible combinations: - R from RW with R from RR gives RR (red flowers). - W from RW with R from RR gives RW (pink flowers).Therefore, the expected phenotypes in the progeny are red flowered and pink flowered plants.This corresponds to Option 4: Red flowered as well as pink flowered plants.
