An organism with a genotype of Hh is a hybrid because?

All the F1 plants are tall because the dominant allele for a tall stems masks the recessive allele for short alleleAn organism with a genotype of Hh is a hybrid because the dominant allele for longer stems covers the recessive allele.


Do all plants inherit one dominant allele?

no


Is an allele bigger then a gene?

An allele is a gene. It is one form of a gene. For example, height in pea plants is controlled by one gene with two forms. A pea plant can be tall or short. There is a short allele and a tall allele for the gene governing height.


What happen in Mendel experiment when a pea plant received two different alleles for the same trait?

He did an experiment with a tall pea plant and a small pea plant. He then went through 2 generations of breeding of these plants and noticed 3 distinct different types of plants. One type was really short, the other was average height, and the final was Tall.He combined 2 medium sized plants with each other (Tt) and (Tt).*T = Tall gene.*t = shortness gene.Put that into you Punnett square and you will get these answers:The small plant had a recessive gene (tt).The medium sized plant had the average set of genes (Tt).The tall plant also had a recessive gene (TT).The results were:1 Small Plant, 2 Medium Plants, and 1 Large Plant.The recessive allele was hidden by the dominant alleleThe recessive allele was hidden by the dominant allele.the recessive allele was hidden by the dominant allele. (novanet)The recessive allele was hidden by the dominant allele.Novanet Swagnovanet:The recessive allele was hidden by the dominant allele!

What is dominant and recessive allele?

A dominant allele is an allele where its phenotype will always be represented when the allele for that gene is present. A recessive allele can be masked by a dominant allele when a dominant and recessive allele are present for the same gene. A recessive allele will only present itself when two recessive alleles for a trait are present.


When mendel crossed true breeding tall plants with true breeding short plants all the offspring were tall because?

I think not as tall is the dominant allele here.T = tallt = shortTT X ttall would beTt======and tall.


How did Mendel find out whether the recessive alleles were still present in the F1 plants?

he breeded the f1 plants with a recessive homozygous plant and if the offspring (f2) showed the recessive allele, then the recessive allele is still present in the f1 plant


In nature genetically albino plants genotype gg do not survive long enough to produce seeds. Why do you thing some plants still carry the mutant g allele?

It may not be a "mutant" allele but a recessive allele that offers other (perhaps yet-unknown) benefits. Or, it has never caused a significant enough problem to have evolved out of the genome.
