Changes in the gene pool can occur due to various mechanisms. From 1892 to 1954, millions of individuals emigrated (moved out) from countries across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States. Many of these individuals entered through Ellis Island, a federal immigration station in New York. Which mechanism affected the gene pool of the immigrants that entered the United States through Ellis Island?

- In primroses, the dominant allele of gene K is necessary to synthesize blue flower pigment. Blue pigment synthesis is inhibited by a dominant allele of gene D. In other words, plants with the genotype K- D- will not produce pigment (and their flowers will be white) because of the presence of the D allele. If two dihybrid plants (KkDd) are crossed, how many plants would you EXPECT to need to grow to get 15 blue flowering primrose plants?Note: Put in a number based on the phenotypic ratio.
