The Moon is thought to have come from the Earth. In 1975, the giant impact hypothesis was put forward. This suggests that the Earth was hit by a planet about the size of Mars around the time of the formation of the solar system approximately 4.5 billion years ago, and the impact caused part of the outer layer of the Earth to spin off and form what is now the Moon.

Answer:

The F2 generation can be explained because the alleles for flower colour and pollen shape are linked.

Explanation:

<em>When two alleles are linked on the same chromosome, there is a high tendency for the alleles to be inherited together. Consequently, the frequency of the alleles recombining in subsequent generations is low.</em>

This is what Bateson and Punnet observed. There exist a linkage between P and L alleles and also p and l alleles, thereby increasing their frequencies of occurring together and decreasing the frequency of their recombination.

Thus, the F2 generation observed by Bateson and Punnet is due to linkage of alleles.
