Hi! You just asked this in the physics section. I'm not sure if you noticed, so I'm letting you know.

The moderators I've seen would just ask that you move this to the biology section! From there, you can ask others for help!

I'm not good with biology. But It seems that the phenotype is half and half. So, whatever the genotype is, half will become white and half will become purple.

If you are given which trait is dominant, that might help. I'm not sure.
