Describe how Mendel cross pollinated pea plants?

Answer 1

Gregor Mendel cross-pollinated pea plants by manually transferring pollen from the stamen of one pea plant to the pistil of another pea plant. He carefully removed the anthers from the first plant to prevent self-pollination and then applied the pollen to the stigma of the second plant. This process allowed Mendel to control the genetic makeup of the offspring and study the inheritance patterns of specific traits in pea plants.

Answer 2

Pea plants are autogamous by nature and can produce seeds by self-pollination. For hybridization Mendel emasculated the mother plant flower and pollinated it with father plant's anthers at the time of viable pollen grain and receptive stigma. the resulting seeds were hybrid having genetic information from both parents.

Plants raised from hybrid seeds on selfing formed seeds of F2 generation. The seeds of F2 generation on germination showed segregation of parental characters.

Answer 3

Mendel's cross-breeding of common pea Mendels cross breeding of common pea plants showed certain traits show up in offspring without blending parent characteristics.
