### Inheritance Patterns of Flower Color in Plants#### Problem StatementConsider the flower color in a hypothetical plant. There is one gene (Bb) for flower color and two alleles involved (B and b). Based on the pattern provided, what type of inheritance are we talking about? **Hint:** Start by writing the genotypes for each case.#### Cross 1:- **Parents**: Blue-flowered plant (BB) x White-flowered plant (bb)- **F1 Generation Outcome**: All pale-blue-flowered (Bb)#### Cross 2:- **Parents**: Pale-blue F1 (Bb) x Pale-blue F1 (Bb)- **F2 Generation Outcome**: - 27 blue (BB) - 49 pale-blue (Bb) - 24 white (bb)#### Questions:a) What are the parents’ genotypes?b) What are the offspring’s genotypes?---### Detailed Explanation:#### Genotypes of the Parents:**Cross 1:**- Blue-flowered plant: **BB** (homozygous dominant)- White-flowered plant: **bb** (homozygous recessive) These genotypes result in 100% of the F1 generation having the genotype **Bb** (heterozygous), which expresses a pale-blue phenotype due to incomplete dominance.**Cross 2:**- Both parents are pale-blue F1 plants, each with the genotype **Bb** (heterozygous).---### Expected Genotypic and Phenotypic Ratios:#### Genotypic Ratio for Cross 2 (F2 Generation):- **BB** (homozygous dominant): 1/4 (or approximately 25%)- **Bb** (heterozygous): 1/2 (or approximately 50%)- **bb** (homozygous recessive): 1/4 (or approximately 25%)#### Phenotypic Ratio for Cross 2 (F2 Generation):Given the phenotypic expression due to incomplete dominance:- **Blue (BB)**: 27 out of 100 (27%)- **Pale-blue (Bb)**: 49 out of 100 (49%)- **White (bb)**: 24 out of 100 (24%)This observation matches the data collected in Cross 2, confirming the ratios for incomplete dominance.---This pattern suggests **incomplete
