A purebred sweet corn plant that produces purple and smooth kernels pollinates a purebred plant that produces yellow and wrinkled kernels. When the F1 was testcrossed, four types of kernels on the cobs were observed in almost equal proportions: purple and smooth, purple and wrinkled, yellow and smooth, and yellow and wrinkled. Which of the following statement(s) are TRUE? I. The F1 plants can only produce purple and wrinkled kernels when selfcrossed. II. If the parent that produces yellow and...
