Mendel took the pollen from one pea flower and put it onto anothers pistil. In order for there to be no other pollination, he covered them with protective bags, he also moved some into a greenhouse.
Gregor Mendel removed the male parts from flowers to prevent self-fertilization and control the pollination process. This allowed him to cross-pollinate plants with specific traits and study their inheritance patterns more accurately. By controlling the pollen, Mendel could selectively breed plants with desired characteristics to observe how traits were passed down to the next generation.
by emasculation and hand pollination
Mendel allowed the offspring of his experimental plants to self-pollinate. That is, he allowed the male and female reproductive cells of the same plant to join and produce a seed. One of the characteristics of pea plants is that it is easy to cross different pea plants but, left to themselves, they self-pollinate with little chance of any accidental pollination between plants.

Gregor Mendel referred to the generation resulting from crossbreeding the parental generation as the "first filial generation," symbolized as F1.

Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiment allowed him great control, as pea plants can self-pollinate or cross-pollinate, and he was able to pollinate them at will. He studied the characteristics of each plant he would cross-pollinate, perform the pollination and plant the resulting seeds, then study the characteristics of the resulting plants.

yes
yes it is

Peas
Mendel's work on pea plants involved studying traits that were controlled by single genes. Peas being able to both cross-pollinate and self-pollinate allowed Mendel to have control over the mating process and ensured the purity of the parent plants used in his experiments, which was crucial for his accurate observations and conclusions about inheritance patterns.
he used plants that were NOT true breeding!
No. Bees tap flowers for nectar and inadvertantly carry pollen between flowers and therefore cross pollinate the flowers.
Gregor Mendel experimented with pea plants in order to understand how gene expression functions.Gregor Mendel was the person who used Pea plant in his experiments and formulated basic principals of heredity from 1854 to 1865 .He is called father of genetics .
