Recessive
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.
This means that the tall pea plant had a double dominant height gene (each gene has 2 parts, one from each "parent"). The short pea plant had a double recessive gene making it short. When the two plants bread, the dominant gene always is the one that shows up, so the plant was tall.
Gene
Suppose that, in a pea plant, round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds in the "texture" gene. If you were to take two plants heterozygous for the texture gene and cross them together to make eight new plants, how many of those plants should express the smooth phenotype? Use a Punnett's Square to determine the results.
Gregor Mendel is studied because he used to pea plants to discover gene inheritance.
It was discovered by Gregor Mendel with his experiment on pea plants.

The resulting offspring will be 25% tall homozygous, 25% short homozygous, or 50% heterozygous. Depending on the gene, the heterozygous will either have codominance, incomplete dominance, normal dominance depending on which gene is dominantly expressed.
the tall trait was controlled by a dominant factor.
two tall genes or one tall gene and one short gene
Either TT or Tt, where T stands for dominant gene for tallness and t for recessive gene.
