When Mendel crossed a pure tall pea plant with a pure short pea plant he concluded it was dominant trait he further concluded the trait for shortness was?

When you mix the genes, you get 4 possible combinations (T=tall, S=Small): TT TS ST SS because of TT and SS, one quarter of all resulting plants are going to be tall, another quarter short. The remaining half is made by TS (and the identical ST). If you have three quarters tall plants in all, the TS plants have become tall, so tall is dominant (same for 3/4 short). If half of the plants are middle sized, tall and short are called co-dominant, so mixing the genes als produces an in-between trait.


What is the combination alleles in purebred tall of pea plant?

Most teachers will designate the dominant gene capital letter. In Mendel's experiment he crossed purebred Tall (T) with purebred short (t). He got all Tall plants as a result. Tall purebreed genotype is TT and the resulting generation was all tall by heterozygous with a genotype of Tt.

He was a monk.


Why is Gregor Mendel so unique?

Gregor Johann Mendel discovered many of the laws of genetics before humans knew what a gene was. He experimented with plants like peas with flowers of different colours and discovered the relationship between dominant and recessive genes. He did this by taking the pollen from peas with one set of characteristics and fertilising the flowers of peas with different characteristics. He noticed that some genes were constant. If he bread tall peas and short peas he would get some plants that were tall, some that were short but none in between. If the genes for tall and short were mixed he might get three out of four offspring that were short and the other was tall. This means the short gene is dominant over the tall gene. By then cross pollinating successive generations he could predict with some certainty how many tall plants and how many short plants he would get. He was born on July 22nd 1822 in Austria and died on January 6 th 1884 in what is now the Czeck republic.


What is phenotype for tall plant?

The phenotype for a tall plant refers to its physical characteristic of being tall, such as its height compared to other plants. This can be influenced by genetic factors, environmental conditions, and interactions between genes and the environment.


What is the basis for law?

Mendel first described what is called genetics. He used sweet peas and crossed pure bred plants. For example, he crossed short pure bred (recessive) with tall pure bred plants (dominant). If tall is dominant, all plants would be tall. Crossing these hybrid plants would give a ratio of 3 tall to 1 short. This is the basis from which all studies of genes come from.


Why a tall mother and a tall father do not necessarily produce a tall baby?

The genes in the tall mother and father do not necessarily match. One of the genes may be faulty, and might not be "compatible" with the other genes, making both go different.


A pea plant with two tall genes is called?

A pea plant with two tall genes is called a homozygous tall plant.


Can a girl who's short when young could be taller when big than who's young tall?

Yes, why is you daughter or something short? Anyone can be tall if...it's in their genes


If a plant has homozygous tall genes what kimd of genes does the plant have?

If a plant is homozygous tall then it would possess two tall genes instead of a short gene. If for the notation you use B to represent the dominant tall gene and b to represent the recessive short gene the plant would carry and "BB" compliment of genes.


What wos the of tall to short plants in the F2 generation of Mendel's experiment?

In Mendel's experiment, the ratio of tall to short plants in the F2 generation was approximately 3:1. This ratio is explained by Mendel's law of segregation, which states that alleles separate randomly during gamete formation, resulting in different combinations in offspring.


Your mom is 5ft 1 and dad is 5ft 10 how tall will you be?

It depends if you have the dominant or recessive genes. You could be very short, or very tall. You can never tell until you stop growing.
