Tt and TT were the genotypes of the true breeding plants that Mendel used in his two factor cross.
Around 1857, Gregor Mendel began breeding green peas to study inheritance. Although heredity was still unknown at the time, Mendel was curious about the subject. Mendel worked with green peas because they were simple to test, produced large numbers of offspring, and had different variety of traits. Mendel discovered that when he bred two true-breeding peas: one purple and one white (a purple flower's offspring will always turn out purple) produced offspring of purple flowers (why was it only purple and not white?) because the trait for a purple color for peas is more dominant. Then he decides to breed those new purple flowers. Mendel found a 3 to 1 ratio of purple and white flowers. This led to two laws from Mendel: the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment.He studied the effects genetics had on the colors of the flowers of a plant.
they were all hybrids
True yes
This is true
because it helped Mendel discover which plants would be crossed to produce offspring.

I believe that you mean Gregor Mendel. He used peas to show dominant vs. recessive inheritance by noting their flower color. His observations were unappreciated for many years, but we now know that he was the first to systematically show the relationship between inheritance of traits, and how some traits are dominant over other traits.

An easy to grow plant that bred true for the traits that Mendel discovered and named ' factors. ' Mostly a lucky choice as co-dominant, linked or other trait variations would have skewed his results badly
Mendel studied pea plants. He chose strains that bred true for traits like pea color, flower color, and height. By crossing plants that bred true for these traits he was able to determine that offspring were not a "blend" of their parents and that traits were passed on by what we now know as genes in patterns that could be predicted from one generation to the next.
true
He needed a pure generation of plants to ensure that there were no recessive factors when he conducted his experiments on heredity.
