Hybrid organisms prodused from a cross between two pure-breeding organisms belong to which generation is F1?

Hybrids from a cross of parental (P) generation, of homozygous parents (one is homozygous recessive, the second one is homozygous dominant) do belong to F1 generation, yes. Their genotype is heterozygous.


When Mendel cross-pollinated two varieties from the P generation that exhibited contrasting traits he called the offspring the second filial or F2 generation.?

TRUE!


What did Mendel's work first and second generation mean?

In a typical Mendel experiment, Mendel took two purebreeding lines (the parental generation) and crossed them to produce the 1st filial generation and sometimes would self cross these to produce the 2nd filial generation.


What did Mendel do in his second law?

The second Mendelian Law is the Law of Segregation. It states that in a cross the parental traits do not merge in the first offspring generation (ie. the recessive, "weaker" trait does not disappear for good) but instead appear unchanged in the second offspring generation. For example, if you cross homozygous dwarf pea plants to homozygous tall, all members of the first offspring generation will be tall. This makes it seem as if the dwarf trait disappears, but it does not. If you inbreed the first offspring generation, you get 25% dwarf plants in the second offspring generation. So the "lost" trait reappears.

F1 refers to what in biology?

F1 refers to the first generation of offspring (children) of two individuals. It can refer to many different organisms, not just animals. P would be used to indicate the 2 parents, and F1 are their children (and F2 would be the second generation of offspring of P, so P's grandchildren and F1's children, and so on) These P and F terms are terms from the field of genetics, used in the study of natural populations and crossing experiments. A famous example is the crossing experiments with peas by Gregos Mendel, who was the fouder of these types of studies.


Distinguish between f1 generation and f2 generation?

The F1 generation consists of the offspring of a cross between two parents; the F2 generation consists of the offspring of a cross between two individuals in the same F1 generation.


What does F2 refer to in biology?

F2 refers to the F2 generation in genetics. First you have the P1 generation, or the 1st parents to cross. Next, their offspring is called the F1 generation. When the F1 generation offspring cross, then the F2 generation appears.


The second generation phenotypes resulting from the cross of true-breeding monohybrid pollination will display a ratio of?

1:4


What is the phenotype in the F1 generation that disappears in a one trait test cross?

The recessive trait phenotype disappears in a one-trait test cross in the F1 generation. This phenotype can reappear in the F2 generation.
