Mendel was interested in the offspring of two different parent plants, so he had to prevent self-pollination. He removed the anthers from the flowers of some of the plants in his experiments. Then he pollinated them by hand with pollen from other parent plants of his choice. When pollen from one plant fertilizes another plant of the same species, it is called cross-pollination.

Why did Mendel wrap his flowers with pieces of cloth?
Mendel wrapped his flowers with pieces of cloth to prevent cross-pollination between different plants. This allowed him to control the breeding process and ensure that only desired traits were being passed on from one generation to the next. By isolating the flowers with cloth, Mendel could carefully monitor and document the inheritance patterns of specific traits.
How did Mendel cross pollinate pea plants?
by emasculation and hand pollination
How mAny pure plants did Mendel produce?
By repeated self pollination
Who discovered pollination?
Mendel
Mendel produced true-breeding strains of pea plants through the process of?
Inheritance.

What pollinations did mendel use to produce purebred plants?
Cross Pollination
How did Mendel cross pollinate pea plants?
by emasculation and hand pollination
How did Gregor Mendel prevent self pollination in his pea plant experiment?
he cut the plants
Mendel obtained his P generation by allowing the plants to?
Cross-Pollinate
What kind of plants did Gregor Johann Mendel work with and why?
Gregor Mendel used pea plants in his experiments to study heredity
Why did Mendel prevent his plants from self-pollinating?
To control the crossing of the traits.Because his experiments were aimed at what happened when you cross pollinated the plants with different characteristics. Self-pollination would have meant that his experiments would not have worked.
How did Mendel control pollination in pea plants?
Mendel cut off the stamens of the pea flowers that he wanted to prevent from self-pollinating. He did this so that the plants couldn't produce pollen.
How mAny pure plants did Mendel produce?
By repeated self pollination
Who discovered pollination?
Mendel
Why did mendel remove the anthers from the pea plants when performing cross-pollination in his experiment?
So that the flowers wont self pollinate.
Why did mrndel use plants in his expirements?
for my opinion, Mendel use plants in his experiments so that we can see clearly the characteristics and differences as a good example for cross pollination
