The flower color of genetically identical hemp plants (clones) is purple when the flowers develop under cold environment (<14 °C) and white when they develop under hot environment (>30 °C). Describe in detail a molecular mechanism that could explain how these two groups of genetically identical plants differ in their gene expressions to produce different flower colors?
Which one of these is correct ? And why are the rest incorrect?
How do I graph this problem on a punnet square?
