Black-and-white camera film, in the old days of film photography, was very sensitive to blue light but not to red light. Blue skies would often show very little detail, because the film couldn’t record all that it was seeing. To compensate, photographers would put a red filter on the lens, darkening the sky enough that the film could record its fluffy clouds.

This paragraph best supports the statement that

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In the pearl-millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and rp (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 > Rp2 > rp). What will be expected phenotypes and ratios of offspring produced by the Rp1/rp × Rp2/rp crosses?

In the pearl millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and Rp3 (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 >Rp2 >Rp3). Which of the following parental cross would produce ½ had red, ¼ purple, ¼ green?

In the multiple allele series that determines coat color in rabbits, c+codes for agouti, cch for chinchilla and ch for Himalayan. Dominance is in the order c+>cch>ch. In a cross of c+/cch X cch/ch, what proportion of progeny will be chinchilla?
