Just like in fruit flies, pea plants are a famous model organism for genetics. Pea plants can have purple flowers or white flowers. Let's use P to represent the allele for Purple and p to represent the allele for white. In pea plants, purple flowers are fully dominant to white. Imagine a cross between a heterozygous male plant and a female that is homozygous recessive for flower color. What are all the possible gametes that the FEMALE plant could make? O Pp O pp O P
