    RR - homozygous red

    Rr - heterozygous red

    rr - homozygous white

    Explanation:

    Given -

    Allele for red color of flower is "R" and allele for white color flower is "r"

    Also, R is dominant over r

    In the F1 cross a homozygous red plant is crossed with a homozygous white plant.

    Genotype of homozygous red plant - RR

    Genotype of homozygous white plant - rr

    RR * rr

    Rr, Rr, Rr, Rr

    In the F2 cross, offsprings of F1 generation are crossed.

    Rr * Rr

    RR, Rr, Rr, rr

    Genotype & Phenotype

    RR - homozygous red

    Rr - heterozygous red

    rr - homozygous white
