Biology

Let's solve for the frequency of the recessive allele using the information provided.

 

Step 1: Understand the genotypes of the flowers

1.Red flowers represent both homozygous dominant (RR) and heterozygous (Rr) genotypes.

2.Pink flowers represent the heterozygous (Rr) genotype.

3.White flowers represent the homozygous recessive (rr) genotype.

 

Step 2: Calculate the frequency of the homozygous recessive genotype (rr)

The number of white flowers represents the homozygous recessive genotype (rr). So, the frequency of rr is:
