What was mendel interested in and how is his work popular today?
dominant and recessive genes. to research this, he used peas and investigated the genes which determined whether a pea would be wrinkled or smooth. he was actually a mathematician and he spend ages cross breading wrinkley with straight and counting out the two different types of pea. he counted 1000 peas. approximately 250 were wrinkled and 750 were smooth, leading him to the theory that the gene for smooth pease was dominant eg. wrinkled = w smooth = W W + w = smooth W + W = smooth w + W = smooth w + w = wrinkled the 3:1 ratio hope this helps ;)
If you cross a purebred smooth pea with a purebred wrinkled pea what percentage of the first generation will be smooth peas?
75%
What is the wrinkled green peas?
its the recessive gene u idiot
What are the 7 characteristics that Gregor Mendel studied?
Gregor Mendel studied the following characteristics in pea plants:1. Flower color - purple as dominant, white as recessive2. Flower position - axial as dominant, terminal as recessive3. Seed color - yellow as dominant, green as recessive4. Seed shape - round as dominant, wrinkled as recessive5. Pod shape - inflated as dominant, constricted as recessive6. Pod color - green as dominant, yellow as recessive7. Stem length - tall as dominant, dwarf as recessiveCampbell, Neil A., et al. Biology. 8th ed. San Francisco: Pearson Benjamin Cummings, 2008. 265.

What proportion of the offspring from this cross will have smooth yellow peas?
9
Dominant wrinkled pea recessive smooth pea?
Wrinkled peas are recessive, smooth peas are dominant.
If smooth peas are dominant over wrinkled peas the allele for smooth peas should be represented as?
a capital S.

Round seed shape in peas is an example of a trait controlled by a dominant allele beacause?
Because the round pea seed is dominant over the wrinkled pea seed.
What pea attributes did Mendel use?
Mendel crossbred -tall & dwarf pea plants, -green & yellow peas, -purple & white flowers, -wrinkled & smooth peas. And a few other traits.
What is the wrinkled green peas?
its the recessive gene u idiot
If a pea plant has a recessive allele for green peas it will produce?
green peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for yellow peas.

What is gregor Mendel's theory?
Gregor Mandals theory was to find out why peas were wrinkled and etc,
If a pea plant has a allele for green peas it will produce?
green peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for yellow peas.
What is the genotype of a plant that produces green peas. Yellow peas are dominant?
two recessive alleles gg
