ANSWER:
In a cross between true breeding red flowers (RR) and yellow flower (rr), orange flower (Rr) is produced.
EXPLANATION:
When the orange coloured flower of F1F1 generation were selfed, F2F2 generation produced plants with red flowers, orange flowers and white flowers in the ratio of 1:2:1.
Here both red and yellow flowers were not dominant over each other. Both tried to express their traits and hence an intermediate colour of both red and yellow resulting in orange colour flowers.
