Describe how Mendel cross pollinated pea plants?
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.
Pea plants usually produce seeds through?
self-pollination
Why mendel selected pea plant to study?
maybe he was lucky and he did so without knowing the reason but today we know the pea plant is 2n=14. so it has 7 pairs of chromosomes. if mendel had studied 8 traits for example, then at least 2 of them would've been on the same chromosome and he couldn't have used its mathematical laws of independence because then at least 2 chromosomes were linked.
Do zooplankton make their own food?
A ZooPlankton Eats Anything , But It Has To Be Smaller Than Its Self .
How can a new plant be different from its parent plant?
No. While the new plants will look similar to the parent plants, seeds are the result of assexual reproduction and assexual reproduction means that the offspring are all unique. In other words there will be variation in exactly the same way as children do not look exactly the same as their parents.
What result did mendel get when he allowed the first-generation plants to self-pollinate?
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.
Are all self pollinated plants are self fertilized plant?
plant
Is anther above stigma in self pollinated plants?
Yes

What was mendels second experiments?
Mendel allowed the first generation plants to self pollinate.
Why hybrids are not successful in self pollinated crops?
In self pollinated crops, hybrid vigour is not just like the cross pollinated crop e.g maize.cross pollination in self pollinated crop produce low seed set and cost of hybrid seed increases.less cytoplasmic male sterility and fertility restorer gene in mostly self pollinated crop.
Step 1 of Mendel's garden pea experiments allowing each variety of garden pea to self pollinate for several generations produced which generation?
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
