When Mendel crossed a true-breeding short plant with a true-breeding tall plant, all the offspring were tall. Which term describes the gene for tallness?
Ture
Tt and TT were the genotypes of the true breeding plants that Mendel used in his two factor cross.

All the offspring were purple because Mendel was dealing with simple genetic dominance. The purple true breeding parent was homozygous dominant and the true breeding white parent was homozygous recessive. When those two are crossed they create only heterozygous offspring (look up a punnett) and since this is simple dominance those heterozygous will show the phenotype of the dominant allele which is purple.

When Mendel crossed a true-breeding short plant with a true-breeding tall plant, all the offspring were tall. Which term describes the gene for tallness?
because it helped Mendel discover which plants would be crossed to produce offspring.

he used plants that were NOT true breeding!
