Question
When two pink flowers (RW) are crossed, there are four equally likely possible outcomes for the
genetic makeup of the offspring: red (RR), pink(RW), pink(WR), and white (WW). If two pink
snapdragons are crossed, what is the probability that the offspring will be (a) pink, (b) red, and
(c) white?
