He got purple flowers, because purple is dominant over white, and a plant with the combination of purple and white will be purple.
P being the purple gene, p being the white, Pp will be purple, just like PP. Only pp will be white.
Mendel found that every fourth plant had white flowers when he allowed the first generation to self-pollinate. Gregor Mendel was a scientist who lived from 1822 to 1884.hyuyt6yt8
Mendel used true breeding plants in the P generation to establish a consistent genetic background for his experiments. True breeding plants produce offspring with the same traits when self-fertilized, allowing Mendel to control the genetic makeup of the parent generation and achieve predictable results in his crosses.
Yes, most are wind pollinated but many have fairly large insect pollinated flowers. Deciduous trees with noticable flowers include, magnolias, laburnum, horse chestnuts, apple, cherries and lilacs.
If a flowering plant is not pollinated, it will not be able to produce seeds. This means the plant will not be able to reproduce and create new plants. Pollination is essential for genetic diversity and the survival of many plant species.
Day flowering plants are normally pollinated by insects or animals that are active during the day e.g. bees, butterflies and birds. Night flowering plants are pollinated by insects or animals that are active at night such as bats and moths. Night flowering plants are normally very heavily scented to attract insects where as day flowering plants use both sent and visual tools to attract pollinators.

No, shrubs are not wind pollinated therefore not a flowering plant. Most flowering plants are pollinated by insects, :D
Gregor Mendel's theories are the basis for modern breeding techniques of plants and animals. Mendel was a German friar who experimented with breeding pea plants.
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.
No, but when pollinated an individual flower will start to close.
Night-flowering, other-pollinated, and wind-pollinated flowers are those which do not need to be pollinated by bees. For example, night-flowering plants may be pollinated by bats, beetles or flies whereas the wind takes responsibility for less bright-colored, less sweet-scented herbaceous flora.

He pollinated the plants himself and in the process he mixed the pollen from pea plants that had different colored to see what the end result would be (I got this all from a textbook I swear)

Gregor Mendel developed the model of heredity that now bears his name by experiments on various charactersitics of pea plants: height (tall vs. Short); seed color (yellow vs. Green); seat coat (smooth vs. wrinkled), etc. The following explanation uses the tall/short trait. The other traits Mendel studied can be substituted for tall and short.Mendel started out with plants that "bred true". That is, when tall plants were self-pollinated (or cross-pollinated with others like them), plants in following generations were all tall; when the short plants were self-pollinated (or cross- pollinated with others like them) the plants in following generations were all short.Mendel found that if true breeding Tall [T] plants are crossed (bred) with true breeding short [t] plants, all the next generation of plants, called F1, are all tall.Next, he showed that self-pollinated F1 plants (or cross- pollinated with other F1 plants) produce an F2 generation with 3/4 of the plants tall and 1/4 short.A. 1/4 of the F2 generation are short plants, which produce only short plants in the F3 generation, if they are self- pollinated (or crossed with other short F2 plants;) these F2 plants breed true.B, 1/4 of the F2 generation (1/3 of the tall plants) are tall plants that produce only tall plants in the F3 generation, if they are self-pollinated; these tall F2 plants breed true.C. 1/2 of the F2 generation (2/3 of the tall plants) are tall plants that produce 1/4 short plants and 3/4 tall plants in the next [F3] generation, if they are self-pollinated. This is the same proportion of tall to short that F1 plants produce.
