What else can I help you with?
A tall pea plant and a short pea plant produce short offspring this is an example of?
This was an example of tallness being a dominant phenotypic trait in pea plants
What are the alleles for a hybrid tall pea plant are represented as?
In pea plants, the allele for tall stems is typically represented by the uppercase letter "T," while the allele for short stems is represented by the lowercase letter "t." A hybrid tall pea plant, which has one allele for tallness and one for shortness, would be represented as "Tt." This genotype indicates that the plant will exhibit the dominant tall phenotype due to the presence of the dominant "T" allele.
You perform a test cross on a tall pea plant half the offspring are short what conclusion can you draw from this outcome?
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
If a true breeding tall pea plant is crossed with a tall pea plant of unknown percentage is correct?
When a true breeding tall pea plant (homozygous for the tall trait, TT) is crossed with a tall pea plant of unknown genotype, the offspring's phenotypes can help determine the genotype of the second plant. If all offspring are tall, the unknown plant is likely also homozygous tall (TT). However, if some offspring are short, the unknown plant must be heterozygous (Tt), as the short trait (tt) can only appear if the recessive allele is present. In summary, the resulting phenotypes of the offspring will clarify the genotype of the unknown parent.
When Mendel crossed a pure breeding tall pea plant with a pure breeding short pea plant all of the resulting plants were tall In this case the tall gene was and the short gene was?
This means that the tall pea plant had a double dominant height gene (each gene has 2 parts, one from each "parent"). The short pea plant had a double recessive gene making it short. When the two plants bread, the dominant gene always is the one that shows up, so the plant was tall.
How might a geneticist write the alleles to show that tall pea plant has one allele for tall stems and one allele for short stems?
Tt :)
Is the following statement true or false only pea plants that have two recessive alleles for short stems will be short?
False. Pea plants can have short stems if they have two recessive alleles for short stems, but they can also have short stems if they have a combination of dominant and recessive alleles that result in a short stature.

What constructing pea plants in the P generation exhibit?
Short stem and tall stems.
What is the combination of alleles in purebred short pea plants?
Two alleles for tall stems.
Can a short pea plant ever be produce from crossing two tall pea plants?
No, the short pea trait is recessive and the tall pea plant trait is dominant. This means that if the plant is a hybrid, it has to be a tall pea plant. The dominant traits "mask" the recessive traits. The plant take one trait from their mom and one from their dad. If either the mom or the dad was not a tall, not hybrid pea plant then their kids would have to be tall be cause they would have one dominant, tall trait
Plant such as the money plant and the blue pea plant have weak stems and need to climb up a support to receive more air?
Vine.
How might a geneticist write the alleles to show that a tall pea plant has one alleles for tall stem and one alleles for short stems?
Having one allele for tall stems and one allele for short stems is a heterozygous genotype and could be represented as Tt, where T represents the tall allele, and t represents the short allele, if the tall allele has complete dominance over the short allele.
You perform a test cross on a tall pea plant half the offspring are short what conclusion can you draw from this outcome?
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
What percentage of pea plants show the short trait?
50%
How dominant or recessive alleles for the trait of stem height determine whether a pea plant will be tall or short?
The dominant trait for height in a pea plant is tall (TT or Tt). The only instance in which a pea plant will be short is if it carries both recessive alleles (tt).
