In butterflies, blue wings (B) are dominant over yellow wings (b), and stripes (S) are dominant over no stripes (s). These genes for these two characteristics assort independently. A homozygous butterfly with yellow wings and no stripes is crossed with a homozygous butterfly that has blue wings and stripes. Afterward, individuals from this F1 generation were crossed obtaining a total of 272 butterflies as follows: 135 blue-winged butterflies with stripes, 55 blue with no stripes, 57 yellow with stripes, and 25 yellow without stripes.
