What letters can be used to model Mendel's cross of true-breeding tall plants with true-breeding short plants in a Punnett square?

Generally speaking, the letters used to represent cross breeding in Punnett squares indicate the characteristic being bred for. In this case, T would represent the tall plants, and S would represent the short plants. Cross-bred plants would most likely be represented by TS.

What was the original generation of pea plants in mendels experiment?
P1 or parental
Is it true that Mendels principles apply not to just to pea plants but to other organism as well?
Yes, it is true. Mendels principles apply to anything and everythin that is living.
How did Morgan's research with fruit flies exlain Punnett's and Bateson's observations of pea plants?
Morgan's research lead to one of the common diagrams used to predict the result of crossbreeding, the Punnett square.
In which generation were recessive traits hidden in all the plants in Mendels experiments?
f2 generation
What happened in mendels experiments when a pea received two different alleles for the same trait?
Unless the alleles are codominate (which Mendel did not have in pea plants), one will be dominate and will be what you see (phenotype) and one will be recessive and you will not see it.
What letters can be used to model Mendels cross of true-breeding tall plants what true-breeding short plants in a Punnett square?
TT for the homozygous tall parent, tt for the homozygous short parent and Tt for the heterozygous offspring.
Which letters can be used to model mendels cross of true-breeding tall plants with true breeding short plants in a punnett square?
True breeding tall plants would be TT and true breeding short plants would be tt, so TT x tt would illustrate the crossbreeding.

Three times as many shorts plants as tall plants.
