A botanist is studying a plant species where flower color is an inherited characteristic. Through extensive cross-breeding trials, she consistently observes that the flower color (either red or white) is determined exclusively by the combination of two alleles at a single, specific location on a chromosome. Based on this evidence, which of the following is the most accurate classification for the flower color characteristic in this plant?

A researcher is studying a newly discovered species of insect. They observe that some insects have spotted wings while others have solid-colored wings. After conducting several generations of breeding trials, they conclude that the wing pattern is determined by the alleles of one specific gene. Based on this finding, how should the researcher classify the wing pattern trait?
