To determine the most likely genotype of flower C, we need to consider the genotypes of the parent flowers A and C and then observe the genotypes of their offspring in the simulation.
Flower A has the genotype Aa (heterozygous) because it is a cross between AA and aa flowers.
Flower C has the genotype CC (homozygous) because we are assuming it is a purebred red flower.
When we cross flower A (Aa) with flower C (CC), the possible genotypes of their offspring are AC and AC.
Observing the first-generation offspring in the simulation, we can see that all the offspring have the genotype AC.
Therefore, the most likely genotype of flower C is CC (homozygous).
Use the simulation to observe the first-generation offspring from the cross between flowers C and A. What is the most likely genotype of flower C?
