In a monohybrid cross, the F1 generation typically consists of heterozygous individuals displaying the dominant trait. When these F1 plants are crossed, the F2 generation exhibits a phenotypic ratio of approximately 3:1, with the dominant trait appearing three times for every one time the recessive trait appears. However, a ratio of 0.11 suggests a different observation, possibly indicating an unusual genetic interaction or a sampling error, as the expected ratio for recessive traits should be closer to 0.25 in a standard monohybrid cross.
In the F2 generation of monohybrids, the recessive trait can reappear in a ratio of 3:1 along with the dominant trait. This is because recessive traits can be masked in the F1 generation but resurface in the F2 generation due to genetic segregation.
In a monohybrid cross of tall dominant and dwarf recessive plants, all the F1 plants will be tall. This is because the tall trait is dominant over the dwarf trait, so the presence of one dominant allele is sufficient to exhibit the tall phenotype. The dwarf trait will be masked in the F1 generation.
When a first generation plant self pollinates, the ratio of dominant to recessive traits in the second generation plants is typically 3:1. This is based on Mendel's principle of segregation, which predicts that in a monohybrid cross, three plants will exhibit the dominant trait and one will exhibit the recessive trait.

The ratio of dominant to recessive traits in the F2 generation of Mendel's experiments was 3:1. This is known as the phenotypic ratio for a monohybrid cross, where three individuals display the dominant trait for every one individual displaying the recessive trait.

The term for when a trait skips a generation is called "recessive inheritance."
