According to Kolreuter's experiment, how could you ensure that pink flowers were always produced? Hint- Pink flowers are C'C", red flowers are C'C', and white flowers are C"C". Use a Punnet Square!

Let,

Dominant trait, red color be designated as C'C'

Recessive trait, white color be represented as C"C"

The F₁ generation of the cross :

C'C'  X C"C" = C'C"

F₂ generation cross is shown in the image attached.

According to the cross, the probability of pink flower being produces 1s 50%

fertilization, pictured in figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. the egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. to ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. in mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. when a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. in placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in figure 24.23b. the fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. the nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.
