Principles of Inheritance and Variation

In Antirrhinum (snapdragon), a red flower was crossed with a white flower, and pink flowers were obtained in the $F_{1}$ generation. When pink flowers were selfed, the $F_{2}$ generation showed white, red and pink flowers. Choose the INCORRECT statement from the following:

A.This experiment does not follow the principle of dominance
B.Pink colour in $F_{1}$ is due to incomplete dominance
C.The $F_{2}$ ratio is $\frac{1}{4}$ (red) : $\frac{1}{2}$ (pink) : $\frac{1}{4}$ (white)
D.The law of segregation does not apply in this experiment✓

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
