Answer Details

If two plants with red flowers were backcrossed, it means that one parent is homozygous dominant for red flowers (RR) and the other parent is heterozygous for red flowers (Rr). Therefore, the possible genotypes of the offspring are: - 50% chance of getting Rr (heterozygous for red flowers) - 50% chance of getting rr (homozygous recessive for white flowers) If the plants are heterozygous for red flowers (Rr), the phenotype (physical appearance) ratio of their offspring will be 3:1 (red:white). This means that 75% of the offspring will have red flowers and 25% will have white flowers. Therefore, the answer is "75% red and 25% white" which is the option that indicates heterozygosity.
