In four o’clock plants, there are three phenotypes for flower color, but only two alleles. The table shows both the expected and

observed numbers of plants of each flower color in a population of 1,000. Phenotype Number expected Number observed Red flowers 105 173 Pink flowers 484 343 White flowers 411 484 Which statement best explains the results in the table? The population is in equilibrium because the total number of plants expected and observed was about the same. The population evolved because the frequency of the alleles and the genotypes changed. The frequency of the alleles and genotypes in the population changed because of gene flow. The observed frequency of the phenotypes is different from the expected frequency because some alleles mutated.

Answer:

The most appropriated answer would be "The population evolved because the frequency of the alleles and the genotypes changed".  

Evolution is a gradual process by which the inherited characters of a population change over successive generations.

Thus, it results in a change in the alleles frequencies of the population.

It might result from natural selection, genetic variation, gene mutation, genetic drift et cetera.

Similarly, in the given population the allele frequencies of the alleles associated with flower color are changed. Thus, the population must have evolved.

A plant is homozygous for flower color. Its flowers are pink.
Mashutka [201]

The correct answer is A. Flower color is a recessive trait.

The recessive gene does not show its effect in heterozygous condition according to Mendel’s law of dominance. Thus, in heterozygous condition, dominant gene determines the phenotype for a trait. In this question a plant is homozygous for flower color. This indicates that pink flower determining gene can only be expressed in homozygous condition. Therefore, flower color is a recessive trait.
