To determine:
The genotype of the parents, the F1 generation, and F2 generation.
Introduction:
In cucumbers, there are two fruit colors, orange and cream. The orange fruit color (denoted by R) is dominant over the cream fruit color (denoted by r). In the given scenario, a cross is done between pure orange homozygous plant and pure cream homozygous plant.
