Dominant Lab

Pea Plants:
Hypothesis: In my opinion the Purple pea plant is dominant because it is a much stronger collr than the white pea plants.
The pea plants in the data the purple plants are dominant. This is proven when you cross the white and purple when both of them are pure, the final product is all purple, if this is still not enough to prove dominance if you are to cross a purple pea plant (that is a carrier) and a white pea plant the final product is 50% for each. My opinion was correct, and the basic Idea made sense. 

Snap Dragon plants: 
Hypothesis: I believe that pink is the dominant because it is represented much more than the other two colors. 
The Snap Dragon plants have an incomplete dominance. To prove this we have to look back at the date, if you cross a red and white, it mixes  and creates 100% pink, that is why in my opinion is pink is dominant, but because it is mixed it cannot be dominant nor co-dominant so it only leaves us with incomplete dominant. Also if you bread a pink snap dragon and a pink snap dragon, the final result was 50% pink 25% red and 25% white, this proves that no color wants to or does take dominance this again proves why the final result is incomplete dominance.

Seeds:
Hypothesis: I am almost sure that the seeds will show a co-dominant like feature, because of the simulare crossing results.
The results of the seeds provided co-dominance because once you cross a spotted seed and a spotted and dotted seed you get 50% of each which shoes that both of the two are fighting for dominance. A better way to think of it is in a game of monopoly co-dominant represents 2 players fighting for the top but are exactly simulare so they are both dominant, the incomplete dominance is as if all players are playing together as "friends," and dominance just shows a player taking control and "dominating the game." To prove that the final result is not incomplete dominance, once you cross a spotted seed with a dotted seed the final result would be mixed because of this you can sea that the dotted seed is at the "bottom part of the power."

Comparing Online & Hands on Project:
Both of the two projects are a great way to learn your stuff, a lot better than only reading a paper or having someone explain it to you. But in my opinion the marble project was a lot better than the online project because of the interaction with the partner but also the amount of fun and communication, but also the online project cannot be fully reliable because of glitches and problems.
