Answer: The correct answer is- A) They will all be blue.

As per the information given in the question, blue color (B) is dominant trait in butterflies over the yellow color (b), which is a recessive trait.

As we know that dominant trait always masks the expression of recessive trait.

The possible genotypes for blue color butterfly are- Bb (heterozygous dominant) and BB (homozygous dominant) whereas for yellow color butterfly is bb (homozygous recessive).

Genotypes of the parents are - BB (which will produce gametes, B and B) and bb (which will produce gametes, b and b).

When these parents are crossed, their offspring will have the genotype Bb (heterozygous dominant).

Thus, they will all be blue.

How does seed formation take place in plant? explain.​
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Seeds are the result of plant reproduction. ... When pollen lands on the flower's stigma, it germinates and forms a pollen tube, which then quickly grows towards the plant's ovary. Once it finds an ovule, the pollen tube bursts to release sperm cells, which fertilize the ovule and initiate seed formation.
