Answer 1

The question is asking for the best explanation as to why some offspring have white flowers. The options provided are:1. These offspring were created by asexual reproduction.2. These offspring were produced in a dark environment.3. These offspring inherited DNA for white flowers from each parent plant.4. These offspring inherited DNA for white flowers from only one parent plant.Option 1 is incorrect because asexual reproduction does not involve the combination of genetic material from two parents, so it cannot explain the presence of white flowers in the offspring.Option 2 is also incorrect because the color of flowers is determined by the genetic makeup of the plant, not the environment in which it is grown.Option 3 is the correct answer. In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit a combination of genetic material from both parents. If one or both parents have genes for white flowers, the offspring can inherit these genes and thus have white flowers.Option 4 is incorrect because, in sexual reproduction, offspring inherit genetic material from both parents, not just one.Therefore, the best explanation for why some offspring have white flowers is that they inherited DNA for white flowers from each parent plant.
