What do true-breeding pea plants always produce?
True-breeding pea plants always produce offspring with the same traits as the parent plant. This is because they are homozygous for the trait of interest, resulting in consistent expression in the offspring generation.
What does mean for a pea plant to be true breeding?
all offspring in every generation will have the same characteristics of parent plants
What organism did mendel use for this study on genetics?
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.
Is it true that Mendels principles apply not to just to pea plants but to other organism as well?
Yes, Mendel's principles of inheritance, such as the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment, apply to many other organisms beyond pea plants. These principles have been found to hold true in various animals, plants, and even humans, demonstrating their widespread relevance in genetics.
Suppose that two true breeding pea plants are crossed One of the pea plants always produces yellow pea pods and the other always produces green pea pods If green pea pods are dominant over yellow pe?
If green pea pods are dominant over yellow pea pods, all offspring from the cross will have green pea pods. This is because the dominant trait (green) will mask the recessive trait (yellow) in the heterozygous offspring. The genotype of the offspring will be heterozygous for the pod color trait.
what do true breeding pea plants always produce?
A specific trait. There are true-breeding tall pea plants and true-breeding short pea plants, etc... .
What do true-breeding pea plants always produce?
True-breeding pea plants always produce offspring with the same traits as the parent plant. This is because they are homozygous for the trait of interest, resulting in consistent expression in the offspring generation.
What did the father of genetics breed together to learn about genetics?
Pea Plants
What does it mean when pea plants are being true-bleeding?
When pea plants are true-breeding, it means that they consistently produce offspring with the same traits as the parents. This indicates that the plants are homozygous for the specific traits being studied.
When Mendel breed pure breed pea plants Why did all the offspring only take on the trait of one parent?
Because they were all homozygous.
What does mean for a pea plant to be true breeding?
all offspring in every generation will have the same characteristics of parent plants
What step did Mendel take to be sure that his pea plants cross -pollinated?
he used plants that were NOT true breeding!
What step did Mendel take to be sure his pea plants crossed pollinated?
he used plants that were NOT true breeding!
Suppose that two true breeding pea plants are crossed?

Why did Mendel choose the garden pea plant as his experimental organism?
He studied plants and was a gardener.
Ralph wanted to breed a pea plant that only produced purple flowers. He continued to breed purple-flower producing pea plants together over six generations. The results of Ralph's selective breeding a?

Two true-breeding pea plants are crossed one with purple flowers and the other with white. Their offspring are?
If two true-breeding pea plants are crossed their offspring will show the dominant trait. The flowers will be purple or light purple.
