Consider a cross between a true breeding purple flowered pea plant (genotype PP) and a true breeding white flowered pea plant (genotype pp) that produces all heterozygous F1 offspring. An F1 intercross is conducted between two of the F1 offspring, resulting in the F2 generation. What is the expected phenotype outcome of the F2 individuals resulting from the F1 intercross?

Consider a cross between a true breeding purple flowered pea plant (genotype
PP) and a true breeding white flowered pea plant (genotype pp) that produces all
heterozygous F1 offspring.
An F1 intercross is conducted between two of the F1 offspring, resulting in the
F2 generation. What is the expected phenotype outcome of the F2 individuals
resulting from the F1 intercross?
100% white offspring
100% purple offspring
3 purple: 1 white
1 purple: 2 light purple: 1 white
1 purple: 1 white
