In a given hybridization between two flowers, red "R" is dominant, and white "r" is recessive. in a cross between two white flowered plants, all of the offspring had white flowers ñ. If a plant grower wanted to produce red flowers, what s/he consider during breeding?

rr X rr = rr, rr, rr, and rr

all white flower (recessive homozygous)

such plant grower should cross a true breed or dominant breed of red flower with a white flower

RR X rr = Rr, Rr, Rr, and Rr

All the above flowers are red (dominant heterozygous)
