ABC genes and the development of floral structures This diagram shows how gene activity in wild-type flowers affects the development of floral structures in the whorls of the floral meristem. Use the diagram to determine what flower structures develop under the conditions described below develop where only A genes are active. develop where A and B genes are active. develop where B and C genes are active. develop where only C genes are active.

Solution

Answer:

1. Sepals develop where only A genes are active

2. Petals develop where A and B genes are active

3. Stamens develop where B and C genes are active

4. Carpels develop wher only C genes are active
