Flower and Hand analysis





1. This flower has a mixture of white and purple color on its pedals. There are a number of possibilities for how the flower got its color. The colors may have been inherited by the parents and the flower got the dominant trait and the recessive white trait. A mutation might of occurred and caused the intertwine of colors. Jumping genes, also known as transposons, might have inserted themselves into the flowers genes as well.


2. A patch of tissue from the pinky side of the limb bud was taken early in development and transplanted on the opposite side, right under where the first finger will form. Then the extra set of digits will form.
