Given the traits of a flower below, using the Punnett square, show what fraction/percentage of offspring will most likely display red and scented? Red (R) is dominant while pink (r) is recessive. Scented (S) is dominant while unscented (s) is recessive Suppose the crossing over is between Rr/Ss and Rr/ss.

Expert Solution
Step 1
The alleles are the alternative forms of a gene that are located on the same locus of a homologous chromosome.
In case of diploid organisms an individual has 2 alleles of a gene and can be homozygous or heterozygous in nature. In case of heterozygous, only the dominant allele will be expressed.
