Indian paintbrushes, a Texas wildflower, vary in color from scarlet to orange, cream, yellow and occasionally purple. Flower color is an inherited trait. What is the basis for the variation in the color of the flowers in this species of plants?Select one:a.The difference in the number of chromosomes in each variety of plantsb.The nutrients in the soil where plants grows in Texasc.The order of the nitrogenous bases in the DNAd.The climate and region the plant grows in Texas

In Texas Longhorn cattle, coat coloration is an inherited trait. What is the genetic basis of coat-color variation in Texas Longhorn cattle? ResponsesDifferences in the numbers of chromosomes in cellsDifferences in the numbers of chromosomes in cellsDifferences in the diets of individual cattleDifferences in the diets of individual cattleDifferences in the environmental conditions of different geographic areasDifferences in the environmental conditions of different geographic areasDifferences in the nucleotide sequences of genes

The flower color characteristic in a plant is determined by red and white alleles. If the only two possible phenotypes are red or white, which term describes this pattern of inheritance?Group of answer choicespolygeniccomplete dominanceincomplete dominanceco-dominance

Another trait in pea plants that follows a simple inheritance pattern is flower colour. Purple flowers are a dominant trait while white flowers are a recessive trait.Explain what this difference means in terms of the alleles for flower colour.

Select all that applyWhen Drummond's phlox and the pointed phlox are sympatric in some areas of Texas, each species only produces flowers of a particular color (red for Drummond's phlox and pale blue for pointed phlox). What are the reasons for that?Multiple select question.Hybrids of the two species have very low fertility.Hybrids of the two species produce flowers with an intermediate color that are not recognized by any pollinators.Drummond's phlox plants that produce blue flowers absorb sunlight more efficiently and overheat in these areas.
