For each of the seven characters Medel studied,he found the same 3:1 ratio of plants expressing the contrasting traits in the f2 generation.
Mendel's observation of the purple flowers in the F1 generation and both purple and white flowers in the F2 generation indicated that traits are inherited as discrete units called alleles. The presence of both traits in the F2 generation showed that the white flower trait was not lost and could reappear in later generations, demonstrating the concept of dominant and recessive alleles.
100% percent of the plants expressed the dominate trait ........................................................................................ what do u get when u mix purple with purple you get 100% purple :) simple peace of cake !
Around 1857, Gregor Mendel began breeding green peas to study inheritance. Although heredity was still unknown at the time, Mendel was curious about the subject. Mendel worked with green peas because they were simple to test, produced large numbers of offspring, and had different variety of traits. Mendel discovered that when he bred two true-breeding peas: one purple and one white (a purple flower's offspring will always turn out purple) produced offspring of purple flowers (why was it only purple and not white?) because the trait for a purple color for peas is more dominant. Then he decides to breed those new purple flowers. Mendel found a 3 to 1 ratio of purple and white flowers. This led to two laws from Mendel: the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment.He studied the effects genetics had on the colors of the flowers of a plant.
Gregor Mendel's main experiment involved breeding pea plants to study inheritance patterns. He crossed plants with different traits, such as tall and short, to observe how characteristics were passed down to offspring. Through his experiments, Mendel discovered the fundamental principles of heredity, known as Mendelian genetics.
This is an example of true breeding for a single trait, known as purple flower color in this case. The consistent expression of the purple flower trait across generations indicates that the plant is homozygous for that trait and consistently passes it on through self-pollination.

3 purple flowers and 1 white flower the ratio is 3:1 ur welcome! hahaha
Because he grasped that there had to be an independant "factor" as he called genes and that even if they don't always manifest they are still there and intact.

Mendel observed that all the offspring had purple flowers, showing that purple is dominant over white in pea plants. He discovered the principle of dominance and the concept of alleles.
all flowers are purple

Not necessarily. Many plants now days have been hybridized and will eventually revert to their 'orginal' colors.
The first generation of offspring from a cross is called the F1 generation.
Mendel crossbred -tall & dwarf pea plants, -green & yellow peas, -purple & white flowers, -wrinkled & smooth peas. And a few other traits.
He got purple flowers, because purple is dominant over white, and a plant with the combination of purple and white will be purple. P being the purple gene, p being the white, Pp will be purple, just like PP. Only pp will be white.
