ccPp x CCpp ?
1. All white
2. All purple
3. 75% purple, 25% white
4. 50% purple, 50% white
5. 25% purple, 75% white
CORRECT! The CCpp individual produces only one type of gamete while the ccPp individual produces two. Hence there will be only two classes in the F1, evenly divided between one that carries a cCPp combination and one with a cCpp combination. The former displays purple flowers, the latter white.
