Another plant is said to be heterozygous for flower color what does this mean?

homozygous means that the alleles that make up the genotype are the same, for example homozygous dominant would have two dominant alleles (RR) or homozygous recessive would have two recessive alleles (rr).
the alternative would be heterozygous, where the genotype contains both a dominant and a recessive allele (Rr).
so a homozygous plant would either have two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles for the seed colour.
Now the way to find out whether it is homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive is to do a cross with a homozygous recessive plant and look at the seed colour (the phenotype). if the the original genotype is homozygous dominant the offspring seed colour will show the dominant seed colour becasue it will be heterozygous. But if the original plant is homozygous recessive the offspring will show the recessive phenotype.

∙ 12y agoHeterozygous for flower color means the plant's genetic material contains both dominant (T) and recessive (r) traits for flower colors, Tt.
Homozygous has either 2 dominant or 2 recessive traits, so a homozygous plant will always have TT or rr.

∙ 13y agoA plant is heterozygous when it posses two different copies of an allele at corresponding chromosonal locci.
In genetics two copies of a gene are inherited, one from each parent, with each copy residing on corresponding chromosomes. when two identical alleles are inherited the gene is a homozygote and when two different alleles are inherited it is said to be hetrozygote.
The expression of one copy over another may be present in heterozygous plants, the allele that is expressed is called the dominant allele and the other called receive. Recessive alleles are only expressed when both copies of the gene are present, if one dominant and one recessive is present the dominate will be expressed. The heterozygous organism is said to be a carrier of the recessive gene. A famous example of this is with pea plants and their colour, heterozygous purple pea plants that carry a recessive white allele can and will produce white offspring when both the recessive white alleles are present.

If a plant has an allele for red flower color and an allele for white flower color then that individual plant is for flower color?
Incomplete dominance which makes intermediate phenotypes.
When a purebred plant with red flowers is crossed with a purebred plant that has white flowers what will be the expected result assuming that flower color in this plant is a co dominant trait?
That depends on which color is dominant. If red is dominant, then F1 will all be red heterozygous. If orange is dominant, then same applies.
When pollen from one flower or plant can fertilized the eggs of the same flower or the eggs of another flower on the same plant it is said to be?
pollination
Is the plant with flowers homozygous or Heterozygous?
Either. It matters. Since white is dominant, the allele (saying it is T for white and t for purple) could be either TT or Tt and still come out white. If the white flower is a purebred, then it is homozygous, therefore, TT. However, the flower could be white and be heterozygous.
You perform a test cross on a tall pea plant half the offspring are short what conclusion can you draw from this outcome?
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
If a plant has an allele for red flower color and an allele for white flower color then that individual plant is for flower color?
Incomplete dominance which makes intermediate phenotypes.
How do you get different flowers on moshi monsters?
Which ever seed you plant will be what the flower will be. However, the flower's color is random. If you do not get the flower color that you need, you have to dig up that flower and plant another seed.
How do you get a certain flower color in Moshi Monsters?
To get the flower color you need to attract a moshling, you plant the seeds needed to attract the moshling, then wait for the flowers to grow to see what color you get. The color of the flower is random. If you do not get the flower color you need to attract a moshling, you have to dig up that plant and plant another seed. Keep planting seeds until you get the flower color you need.
A white flower plantis is crossed with a plant that is heterozygous for the trait what percentage of the flower will be purple flowers?
1:2:1
When a purebred plant with red flowers is crossed with a purebred plant that has white flowers what will be the expected result assuming that flower color in this plant is a co dominant trait?
That depends on which color is dominant. If red is dominant, then F1 will all be red heterozygous. If orange is dominant, then same applies.
How do you get certain colors of seeds on your moshling garden on Moshi Monsters?
The flower color is random. There is no way to get a specific seed color. Plant the seeds, wait for the flower to grow, and if it is not the color you need, dig it up and plant another seed. Keep trying until you get the flower color that you need.
How do you get a blue moshling seed on Moshi Monsters?
The color of the seed is random, meaning you can not get a specific color. When the seed grows into a flower, if it is not the color you need, you will have to dig the plant up and plant another seed. Wait to see if that seed grows into the color of flower you need. Repeat until you get the color of flower you need.
How do you change colors of flowers on moshi monsters?
If you do not get the flower color you need to attract a moshling, you have to dig up that plant and plant another seed. Keep planting seeds until you get the flower color you need.
How can you tell which color your love berry flower is going to be on Moshi Monsters?
Flower colors are random on Moshi Monsters. You will not know the color of any flower until it blooms. If you do not get the color you need, you have to dig up that flower and plant another seed.
Can you find out what color your plant is before it fully grows on Moshi Monsters?
No, you have to wait until the plant has fully grown to see what color the flower is. The color is random. If you do not get the color you need to attract a moshling, you have to dig the plant up and plant another seed and wait for it to grow and hope that it will be the correct color.
How do you know that the Crazy Daisy is pink in Moshi Monsters?
When you plant the seed, you do not know the color of the flower. When the seed has grown into a flower, hover under the plant and it will tell you what color the flower is.
If orange flower color in a plant is controlled by and allele f and red flower color is controlled by and allele f which flower color is dominant?
Orange
