Because Mendel crossed two pure-breeding plants. One being homozygous dominant and one being homozygous recessive. All of the progeny ended up being heterozygous, causing them to take on the dominant phenotype and look like the homozygous dominant parent.

A major deviation from mendels law occurs because of?
due to linkage..
How does mitosis cause the offspring to have the same DNA as its parents?
Because the last phase in Mitosis, Telephase, produces two diploid daughter cells, identical to the parent cell.
Why is the offspring not identical to parent in asexual reproduction?
The offspring is not identical to parent in sexual reproduction because sexual reproduction produces an offspring that is genetically different from the parents. ---- The answer above is actually incorrect. The offspring is identical genetically to the parent because mitosis produces cells genetically identical to the parent cell or cells. But the offspring itself is not identical.
Why its hard to produce new varieties of trees?
because they are big
Why are you not identical to your parents?
An offspring is not identical to its parents because, an offspring is the product of the fertilization of two different individuals. Only some features are inherited from either parent, thus the offspring is not an identical copy of the parents.
Why was it important to Mendels work that peas were true breeding?
because it helped Mendel discover which plants would be crossed to produce offspring.
Kind of trait that seemed to vanish in the offspring produced in mendels first expiriment?
This was the recessive trait - because the plant had to have two copies for this trait to show, the one dominant copy masked the recessive copy.
A major deviation from mendels law occurs because of?
due to linkage..
Does your analysis support or refute mendels hypothesis of dominant and recessive inheritance?
You are from Kerr. The answer is on the textbook. The analysis does support the hypothesis because some of the offspring's genotype is heterozygous, as they have two different alleles. They do not have the recessive traits expressed, except in organisms that are homozygous recessive. You're so welcome.
Are frogs r or K selected organisms?
frogs are r-selected because they produce many offspring but only a few of them survive. There is no parental investment and they become reproductively active early in their life cycle.
What are the exceptions to the rule of mendels principles?
a scientific answer that all doctors should know
How are plant offspring like their parents and why does this happen?
Plants are offspring like their parents because of their parents DNA this happens because of fertilization
Which of mendels principles is most important in explaining the production of males and females?
because thats how we can do it haha i dont even know this answer
Why do animals eat their offspring?
Because they are tasty
How does mitosis cause the offspring to have the same DNA as its parents?
Because the last phase in Mitosis, Telephase, produces two diploid daughter cells, identical to the parent cell.
Why is the offspring not identical to parent in asexual reproduction?
The offspring is not identical to parent in sexual reproduction because sexual reproduction produces an offspring that is genetically different from the parents. ---- The answer above is actually incorrect. The offspring is identical genetically to the parent because mitosis produces cells genetically identical to the parent cell or cells. But the offspring itself is not identical.
Why is it important for an offspring to inherit the traits from its parents?
Offspring must inherit traits from its parents because it parents contained genes that were dominant and survived. the genes passed from parent to offspring are important because they are the dominant genes of survival. they passed of survival genes to help their offspring live longer.
