[LONG ANSWER] Two groups of cloned seeds from a lima bean plant are grown under two conditions: 1) normal soil (NORM), 2) soil that is high in pollutants and low in nutrients (HI-LOW). The plants that
grow from seeds in the HI-LOW soil grow shorter than the plant they came from and have lower seed
production than plants grown in the NORM soil. Both groups of plants have ofspring in the same soil
type, and the new generation looks exactly the same as the previous generation, with HI-LOW plants
being shorter than NORM plants.

Suppose a particular species of tulip plant has three alleles for the gene that codes for flower color. the cr allele produces red tulips, the cp allele produces purple tulips, and the cw allele produces white tulips. cr is dominant over cp and cw, and cp is dominant over cw. for each of the following crosses, determine the expected ratio of offspring for each flower color. cr cp x cp cw cr cw x cp cw 1 red: 1 purple : 0 white, 1 red: 2 purple: 1 white, 2 red: 1 purple 1 white, 1 red: 3 purple : 0 white, 2 red: 0 purple : 2 white, 2 red: 2 purple : 0 white
