Two heterozygous purple-flowering pea plants are crossed. If purple is dominant over white, what are the expected phenotypic results?

To solve this question, one can make use of a punnet square to determine the phenotypic ratios:

A - allele for purple colour

a - allele for white colour

Aa X Aa

Genotypes: 1 AA : 2 Aa : 1 aa

Phenotypes: 3 Purple flowered pea plants to 1 white flowered pea plant.

Assuming that this complete dominance, where the A allele, the purple colour is dominant over the lowercase a allele that codes for white colour in the pea plants.
