2.) Mendel's Experiment. In one of his experiments, Mendel crossbred nonpure purple flower pea plants. These purple pea plants had two traits for flowers, purple(dominant) and white(recessive). The result of the crossbreeding was 705 second-generation plants with purple flowers and 224 second-generation plants with white flowers. Determine the empirical probability of a second- generation plant having a,) white flowers b.) purple flowers
