A plant with flowers with pink petals is crossed to another plant with flowers with pink petals. The offspring include 15 plants with pink flowers, 7 plants with red flowers, and 8 plants with white flowers. If you then crossed a pink-flowered plant to a plant with red flowers, what types of offspring, and in what proportions, would you expect to see? Feel free to include Punnett square(s) to help explain your answer.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
