There are three possible genotypes and phenotypes for wing color in a species of moth: RR = red wings; Rr= orange wings; rr = yellow wings. A red winged moth is crossed with a yellow winged moth. a) What is the pattern of inheritance in this example? Explain. b) What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the parents? c) What percent of the offspring will have red wings? Orange wings? Yellow wings?

Respuesta :

A) I don’t understand this part (sorry)
B) The genotype for the red parent is homozygous dominant and for the yellow parent it’s homozygous recessive. The phenotype just means what color they are (which was already established)
C) The offspring will be orange (with a heterozygous gene

Hope this helped.
