Pink flowers are the results or offspring of the cross of red and white parental generation. Red flowers gentoype are generally referred to as RR, the uppercase R refers to the red pigment which is dominant over the ww, or white recessive. Using a punnett square of the RR x ww cross...

RR x ww

Rw Rw genotype: 1 (100%) Rw

Rw Rw phenotype: 1 (100%) pink

...yields 100% pink flowers with the genotpe of Rw. An easy way to remember the difference between phenotype and genotype is that both phenotype and physical begin with ph and pehnotype refers to physical appearances/frdcriptions.

If red flowers are labeled "R" and white flowers are labeled "r" then pink flowers have the genotype of "Rr". That is Mendel's work on genetics.

Hydrangea plants of the same genotype are planted in a large flower garden some of the plants produce blue flowers and others pink this can be best explained by what?

The parental plants must be heterozygous. If you cross two heterozygous plants, Aa x Aa, you will have three different possibilities for the offspring (AA, Aa, and AA). If Aa were pink flowers, the resulting blue flowers must have the genotype AA, or the recessive homozygous state.actually this particular plant produces different colour flowers in different pH soil, I'm not sure but i think the blue ones are in acidic soil and the pink ones in alkaline. something to do with aluminum uptake.

What is an example of an incomplete dominance?

A good example of incomplete dominance is the color of Japanese 4 o'clock flowers. A red Japanese 4 o'clock will have the genotype RR. A white Japanese 4 o'clock will have the genotype WW.When these two flowers are crossbred, each will give one of their genes. The red flower will give a R (for red) gene. The white flower will give a W (for white) gene. The offspring will have the genotype RW.Since neither of these are recessive, (recessive genes have lower case letters) they both show up in the phenotype. The result is a mix of red and white: pink flowers!Had the white gene been recessive, and the offspring had the genotype Rw, then the flower would be red. Since both are dominant, they have incomplete control of the phenotype.
