How was Mendel able to determine that certain traits were dominant and some were recessive?

Gregor Mendel was able to determine traits by the ratio in which they appeared. For instance, he determined that a recessive trait will show up 25 percent of the time if one parent has it.

In the F2 generation in Mendel's experiment's the ratio of dominant to recessive traits was?
3:1 homozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant, heterozygous dominant and homozygous recessive.
What Did Mendel Study To Do With Organisms?
Mendel studied sweet peas. He studied the inheriance of certain traits in pea plants. His studies of the passing of certain traits formed the basis for our understanding of dominant and recessive genes in plants and animals.
What are the states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive?
Mendel's law of inheritance.
What was Mendel's main contribution to hereditary science?
Gregor Mendel showed the way dominant and recessive traits are inherited and expressed.
What did Gregor Mendel study from 1853 to 1884?
Mendel studied sweet peas. He studied the inheriance of certain traits in pea plants. His studies of the passing of certain traits formed the basis for our understanding of dominant and recessive genes in plants and animals.

What ratio did mendel find for dominant to recessive?
3:1

Is it true that mendel assumed that a dominant allele had masked the corresponding recessive allele in the f1 generation?
No. A recessive trait is masked by a dominant trait.
Gregor Mendel is studied in this course because he?
did research on dominant and recessive traits.
What are the states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive?
Mendel's law of inheritance.
Recessive genes will always be masked by dominant genes This is Mendel's principle of?
Dominance

Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant by the dominant form of a trait?
A trait that masks another trait is called dominant, or a dominant trait.
What is the kind of trait that seemed to vanish in the offspring produces in Mendel's first experiment?
Mendel's experiments showed the characteristics of genes that express complete dominance--that is, traits where one allele is completely dominant over another, and the recessive allele does not appear in the phenotype at all. Some of the specific traits that Mendel was testing include pea color (yellow or green, with green being completely dominant) pea surface texture (wrinkled or smooth, with smooth being dominant) and flower color (pink and white, with pink being dominant.)
What are Mendel's factors?
Mendel's "factors" are now known as genes.
