Two pea plants that are true-breeding for recessive white flowers are mated and their offspring analyzed. Which of the following statements about this situation is true?
Group of answer choices
A)The offspring represent the P generation.

C)Both parents are referred to as heterozygotes.
D)Half of the offspring will be true-breeding for white flowers.
Assume that a single gene determines coat coloration in cats, with the B allele resulting in
orange coloration, and b allele results in black coloration. This gene exists on the X
chromosome (recall that cats have XX/XY system of sex determination). My cat Pepper
is a female tortoiseshell, and my cat Hobbes is an orange male.
(i)
What is the probability that Hobbes and Pepper have three kittens, Hopper (male),
Pepsi (female), and Hippie (female)?
What is the probability that they have three kittens, and that Hopper (male), and
Hippie (female) are both orange, and that Pepsi (female) is a tortoiseshell?
