Answer: If the F2 occurs in the ratio 9 blue:3 pink:4 white, one gene pair (i.e 2 genes) control the flower color phenotype.

Explanation: This principle is called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE where one gene (dominant) won't completely override the other (recessive).

Let assume B represents the dominant gene and b represents the reccesive gene. Let also assume that Blue color is dominant over white color. We can assign the genotype as follows;

Homozygous dominant genes BB will produce Blue color

Homozygous recessive genes bb will produce white color

Heterozygous genes Bb will produce pink color.

Therefore, a pair of gene ( 2 genes) will determine the flower color phenotype.

Answer:

I think it just all exists at once, if it never is created or destroyed. It must have just appeared at the same time at some point. It doesn't exactly come from anywhere, but that's my opinion. There might be another scientific answer out there, but that's what i think. I hope this helps.
