If the two parent pea plants have Tt traits, they will create TT, Tt, Tt, tt. 1 TT - homozygous dominant, 2 Tt - heterozygous, and 1 tt - homozygous recessive.

Does inbreeding result in offspring that are heterozygous for most traits?
Inbreeding results in offspring that are homozygous for most traits - the variability tends to be bred out of the population.
Do plants pass on their traits to their offspring?
Yes, the study of genetics started with pea plants and flowers which began the hypothesis of dominant and recessive traits.
How do you find possible phenotypes of offspring?
Mendel Diagrams. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring gets a dominate gene from one parent and a recessive gene from another, the offspring will exhibit traits from the dominate gene. If the offspring get a recessive gene from both parents, the offspring will exhibit traits from the recessive gene.
How are autosomal traits related to Mendel's observations of heredity?
Gregor Mendel grew hundreds of pea plants. He was curious as to why some of the plants had different traits. Some plants were tall and others were short. Some plants produced green seeds while others produced yellow seeds.Mendel observed that most of the pea plants' traits were similar to its parents. In this observation, Mendel discovered heredity. Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to offspring.Mendel started his experiments with purebred plants, a plant that always produces offspring with the same form of a trait as a parent. Purebred pea plants self-pollinate (pollinate by themselves.) The pistil produces female egg cells. And the stamens produce pollen that contains male sex cells.Next, Mendel cross-pollinated the plants. He took the pollen from a short plant and applied it to a tall plant. He called this generation the parental generation or the P generation. The offspring of this generation was called the first filial generation. The offspring of this first filial generation were all tall. Mendel was curious as to why the tall plant gene over powered the short plant gene. It was because in pea plants tall genes are the dominant allele while short genes are the recessive allele.When the pea plants from the first filial generation were pollinated, three-fourths of the offspring (called the second filial generation) were tall and one-fourth was short. It showed Mendel that recessive alleles can reappear in the next generation of plants.Some Key AbbreviationsT = dominant allelet = recessive alleleTT = (purebred) a plant that inherited two dominant allelesTt = (hybrid) a plant that inherited one dominant allele and one recessive allelett = (purebred) a plant that inherited two recessive alleles
If homozygous BB is crossed with homozygous bb what will the offspring have-?
The offspring will get the traits of Homozygous BB .
When two pea plants with Tt traits are cross-pollinated, what offspring will result?
usually tall
When you think of the trait of the parent plants why is this result surprising?
what trait or traits did the plant in the f generation to the offspring in the F2 gen. what did the difference in the F1 and F2 offspring show Mandel
When two pea plants with tt traits are cross pollinate what offspring will result?
usually tall
What did Gregor Mendel do study different characteristics in his genetics experiments?
Gregor Mendel took two true-breeding plants with contrasting traits and cross-pollinated them, producing offspring with genes for both characteristics. He used selective breeding.
Does inbreeding result in offspring that are heterozygous for most traits?
Inbreeding results in offspring that are homozygous for most traits - the variability tends to be bred out of the population.
Does corn exhibit certain traits?
It does because the corn plants that it reproduced from have the same traits as there offspring.
Offspring that result from crosses between parents with different traits?
genes
What are facts about square?
it show which traits will result when two parents have offspring...... :)
Do plants pass on their traits to their offspring?
Yes, the study of genetics started with pea plants and flowers which began the hypothesis of dominant and recessive traits.
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!
When plants that are true breeding for different traits of a characteristic are crossed the offspring are called?
first-generation plants
When he crossed to pea plants that have different traits of the same characteristic how was Mandel able to select which plants would be crossed to produce offspring?
visual inspection of phenotypic traits.
