A nettle has been discovered, native to a nation, that produces tiny flowers that come in two colors: white and pink. The petals of the flowers come in two varieties: ruffled or slotted. After years of studying them, it has been widely acknowledged that both traits follow classic Mendelian inheritance patterns of dominance. The table below shows floral phenotypes in a small garden in an isolated greenhouse, where the dominant phenotypes are the most plentiful and researchers assume the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.Phenotype White Pink Ruffled Slotted # 4900 400 700 4600
