Scientists performed an experiment with pea plants, set up much the same way as Mendel's pea plant genetic experiments. The scientists studies two traits simultaneously, flower color (purple or red) and pollen shape (long or round). They started with true breeding purple and long plants and crossed them with true breeding red/round plants. The resulting F1 plants all demonstrated purple flowers and long pollen. The F1 plants were the crossed with each other. The expected and observed results are shown here. What relevant question is appropriate to ask next based on conclusions drawn from the observed data?
