Chapter 12, Problem 9RQ
A scientist pollinates a true-breeding pea plant with violet, terminal flowers with pollen from a true- breeding pea plant with white, axial flowers. Which of the following observations would most accurately describe the F2 generation?
- 75% violet flowers; 75% terminal flowers
- 75% white flowers in a terminal position
- 75% violet flowers; 75% axial flowers
- 75% violet flowers in an axial position

Smooth seed shape is dominant to wrinkled. The F2 generation is as follows: 3/4 smooth: 1/4 wrinkled. What is the expected F1 genotypic ratio?
Monoecious plants such as corn have either staminate or carpelate flowers. Knowing what you do about the molecular mechanisms of floral development, which of the following might explain the development of single-sex flowers?
a. Expression of B-type genes in the presumptive carpel whorl will generate staminate flowers.
b. Loss of A-type genes in the presumptive petal whorl will allow C-type and B-type genes to produce stamens instead of petals in that whorl.
c. Restricting B-type gene expression to the presumptive petal whorl will generate carpelate flowers.
d. All of the choices are correct.
