13. Imagine that a plant with red flowers is bred to one with white flowers and when they make fruits, the seeds are collected and grown into new plants. The new plants, when old enough, have only pink flowers. Which plants are the parental generation? Which are the first filial generation? If the pink-flowered plants are interbred with each other and the resulting seeds planted, what would that generation be called? 14. Assume the plants in Question 13 are like those in Figure 16-9. What is the genotype of the plants with red flowers? Those with white flowers? Those with pink flowers? When a plant with red flowers makes pollen grains, will they all carry the Rallele? Will any carry the r allele? Or will half have R and half have r? Will any of the pollen grains be Rr? Explain your answer.
