To determine the phenotypes based on the provided genotypes for flower position, we need to refer to the fact that axial flower position (A) is dominant over terminal flower position (a).

  1. For Aa (heterozygous):

    • Since A is dominant, the phenotype will be Axial flower position.
  2. For aa (homozygous recessive):

    • Since there are two recessive alleles, the phenotype will be Terminal flower position.
  3. For AA (homozygous dominant):

    • Since both alleles are dominant, the phenotype will be Axial flower position.

Here are the answers for each question blank:

  • Question Blank 1 (Aa): Axial flower position
  • Question Blank 2 (aa): Terminal flower position
  • Question Blank 3 (AA): Axial flower position
