1.You cross 100 plants that are true-breeding for red flowers, hairy leaves, and petal veins (P1) with 100 plants that are true-breeding for purple flowers, smooth leaves, and no petal veins (P2). 500 plants of the F1 generation all have red flowers, hairy leaves, and petal veins. What does this tell you about the linkage between these genes? P2 Purple Petals Smooth Leaves Veins Absent Red Petats Hairy Leaves Veins Present A. The genes are linked B. The genes are not linked C. This tells you nothing about gene linkage F1 Red Petals Hairy Leaves Veins Present

Question
You join a project where the team is working on mapping three genes of a plant-like organism. The group is interested in three traits: flower color
(red or purple; encoded by gene Color [C]), leaf texture (smooth or hairy; encoded by gene Texture [T]), and petal veins (present or absent;
encoded by gene Vein [V]).
One of the extraterrestrial geneticists (Dr. Jerry) hypothesizes that the genes for these traits are each on separate chromosomes that sort
independently. You hypothesize that the genes for these traits are completely linked on the same chromosome and that they are all inherited
together.

B. Cross F1 individuals with P1 individuals
D. Cross P1 individuals with P2 individuals to see if you get different results this time
A. Cross F1 individuals with other F1 individuals
C. Cross F1 individuals with P2 individuals
