A plant can produce either purple flowers or white flowers. What is the probability of purple-flowered offspring if two plants that are heterozygous for purple flowers are crossed?

You would be crossing Pp and Pp. If you put them in a punnet square, the four possible gene combination you get would be PP, Pp, Pp, and pp. In all cases except the last, the resulting flower's phenotype would be purple. So the probably of purple flowered offspring is 75%, or 3/4.

The probability of having purple flowers in the offspring is 75%.

A gene is the unit of inheritance found on the chromosomes. They often occur in pairs called alleles. A pair of alleles control the phenotype (observed traits) of an individual.

Given two heterozygous parents that have purple flowers, let the gene for purple flowers be T and let the gene for white flowers be t. Using a punnet square as shown, there is a 75% chance of obtaining offspring having purple flower color
