More Mendel (S). Given Mendel’s snapdragon experiment from Mindscape 1, suppose that two second-generation snapdragons breed. Construct a two-by-two table showing all the possible gene pairs for the third generation of snapdragons. If it is equally likely to inherit a red or white gene from the second-generation parent, what is the probability that a third-generation plant has a white flower? A red flower? A pink flower? What proportions of the colors would you expect to see in a bed of such flowers?
