Mendel's P generation (parent generation) was not heterozygous; it was typically homozygous for the traits he was studying. For example, he used true-breeding pea plants, where each plant had two identical alleles for a particular trait, such as smooth or wrinkled seeds. This ensured that the traits observed in the F1 generation were the result of the combination of these homozygous genotypes.

What was the original generation of pea plants in mendels experemint called?
The original generation of pea plants in Mendel's experiments is called the P generation, or parental generation. This generation consists of the true-breeding plants that Mendel used to establish the traits he studied in subsequent generations. The P generation's offspring are referred to as the F1 generation, which Mendel observed for inheritance patterns.
In which generation were recessive traits visible in a few plants in mendels?
F2 generation
In which generation were recessive traits visible in a few plants in mendels experiments?
F2 generation
In which generation were ressesive traits hidden in all the plants in mendels experiments?
f1 Generation
What is te first generation of offspring in mendels experiments called?
The first generation of offspring in Mendel's experiments are called the F1 generation or the first filial generation. These are the offspring resulting from the crossing of two parental or P generation plants.
In Mendels experiment why did traits show up in F2 generation that were not present in the F1 generation?
All of the F1 generation are heterozygous, therefore 100% exhibit the dominant phenotype. The F2 generation has a ratio of 1 homozygous dominant: 2 heterozygous: 1 homozygous recessive. This results in a phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive.
In the mendels experiment why did traits show up in the f2 generation that were not present in the f1 generation?
All of the F1 generation are heterozygous, therefore 100% exhibit the dominant phenotype. The F2 generation has a ratio of 1 homozygous dominant: 2 heterozygous: 1 homozygous recessive. This results in a phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive.
In Mendels cross for stem height what contrasting traits did the P plants in the P generation exhibit?
small heights and a dirty green color
What happens to the alleles between the P generation and the F2 generation?
In the P generation, one parent is homozygous dominant and the other parent is homozygous recessive. In the F1 generation, the product of a cross between the P generation, the offspring are all heterozygous. In the F2 generation, the product of a cross between the F1 generation, the expected result is 1/4 homozygous dominant, 1/2 heterozygous, and 1/4 homozygous recessive.
What were Mendels pure strains?
F1 generation
What was the original generation of pea plants in mendels experemint called?
The original generation of pea plants in Mendel's experiments is called the P generation, or parental generation. This generation consists of the true-breeding plants that Mendel used to establish the traits he studied in subsequent generations. The P generation's offspring are referred to as the F1 generation, which Mendel observed for inheritance patterns.
What was the second generation of offspring in mendels experience called?
F2 generation (second filial generation)
In which generation were recessive traits in all the plants in mendels experiments?
F1 generation
In which generation were recessive traits visible in a few plants in mendels?
F2 generation
Which generation were recessive traits hidden in all the plants in mendels experiments?
F1 generation
In which generation were recessive traits visible in a few plants in mendels experiments?
