Answer:
D (purple flower plant is dominant)
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel was regarded as the "Father of Genetics" because of his outstanding contribution to discovering the pattern of inheritance. In his experiments with purebreeding purple and white-flowered plants, he discovered that the F1 offsprings were all purple-flowered.
This observation made him to propose his LAW OF DOMINANCE, which states that one allele of a gene is capable of masking the expression of another in a heterozygous state. In this case of flower colour gene, the allele for purple color (P) is masking the gene of the white colour (p) in a combined state. Hence, purple allele is said to be DOMINANT over white allele.
He discovered that the white allele was being masked when he performed a dihybrid cross i.e. F1 self cross to derive a plant with white flowers.
Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths. The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy.
