How do you get the f2 generation from the f1 generation?

Answer 1

taken from a science textbook-

Scientists today call these parent plants the parental generation, or P generation. The offspring from this cross are the first filial generation or the F1 generation. The word filial comes from filila and flilius, the Latin words for daughter and son. When the plants in the F1 generation were full-grown, Mendel allowed them to self-pollinate. Surprisingly, the plants in the F2 gneration were a mix of tall AND short plants. The shortness trait had reappeared even though none of the F2 parent plants were short. Mendel counted the tall and short plants. About three fourths of the plants were tall, while one fourths were short.

Answer 2

P2 is the 2nd parental generation.....meaning your grandparents. Your parents are p1, grandparents P2, great grandparents are P3 and so on.

F1 is the first generation of kids. So if you have kids. Your kids will be F1, and when your kids hae kids.....your grandkids will be the F2 generation

Answer 3

The P generation is the parental, or original, generation. These are the individuals that are crossed to produce the F1 (Filial 1) generation.

The offspring of the F1 generation are the F2 generation.

Answer 4

Mendel crossed two purebred pea plants (as an example)

in the F1 generation he got;

all tall plants, the short or recessive trait disappeared

then when he crossed those he got;

three tall plants but one short, the recessive allele occurred again

Answer 5

The offspring of the P1 generation are called the F1, or first children of an organism. The offspring of the F1 generation are then called the F2 generation of the original organism.

Answer 6

You cross two organisms from the F1 generation to get the F2 generation.
