Complete the genotypes in this diagram: Parental Genotype: Genotype:-- F1 114 122 What were the genotypes of the parent plants? Both plants are homozygous Both plants are heterozygous One plant was heterozygous white and the other homozygous purple One plant was homozygous white and the other heterozysous purple : One plant was heterozygous white and the other heterozysous purple
