When Mendel crossed a true-breeding short plant with a true-breeding tall plant, all the offspring were tall. Which term describes the gene for tallness?
Ture
dominant
All the offspring were purple because Mendel was dealing with simple genetic dominance. The purple true breeding parent was homozygous dominant and the true breeding white parent was homozygous recessive. When those two are crossed they create only heterozygous offspring (look up a punnett) and since this is simple dominance those heterozygous will show the phenotype of the dominant allele which is purple.

Inbreeding is a selective breeding method in which 2 individuals with identical or similar sets of alleles are crossed.

Alleles are crossed from two different parents with the desirable trait. For example, if one female show horse produced a beautiful coat, and another male show horse also produced a beautiful coat, the breeder would breed the two horses to get the good-coat-producing gene in the offspring. The two alleles would produce the desired trait in the offspring.

If two true-breeding pea plants are crossed their offspring will show the dominant trait. The flowers will be purple or light purple.

When two true-breeding plants are crossed, only one result is possible.
no there are many possibilities
