Divergent= Beatrice Prior/ Tris
The answer is C) 9:3:3:1
This looks like a dihybrid cross where the expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1. However, in nature, the numbers cannot be absolut. Let's check it out:
242 purple wrinkled
84 purple smooth
70 yellow wrinkled
24 yellow smooth
Divide all by the smallest number:
242 purple wrinkled / 24
84 purple smooth / 24
70 yellow wrinkled / 24
24 yellow smooth / 24
We have
10.1 purple wrinkled which is near to 9
3.5 purple smooth which is near to 3
2.9 yellow wrinkled which is near to 3
1 yellow smooth
As the flower takes water that it needs to survive, the dye in it has no more density so it goes up with the water dying everything in its path blue.
