Homozygous for tall is TT

Homozygous for short is tt

All F1 offspring from this cross are Tt which makes them genotypically heterozygous and phenotypically tall.

When Gregor Mendel crossed purebred short plants with purebred tall plants all of the offspring were?

All the offspring were tall plants. This is because the tall trait is dominant over the short trait in Mendel's experiments on pea plants.


When he crossed to pea plants that have different traits of the same characteristic how was Mandel able to select which plants would be crossed to produce offspring?

visual inspection of phenotypic traits.


When gregor mendel crossed true bleeding tall plants with true bleeding short plants plants all the offspring were tall because?

When Gregor Mendel crossed true-breeding tall plants with true-breeding short plants, all the offspring were tall because the tall trait is dominant over the short trait. In this cross, the tall plants contributed a dominant allele, while the short plants contributed a recessive allele. Since the presence of just one dominant allele is sufficient to express the tall phenotype, all the F1 offspring exhibited the tall trait. This foundational experiment established key principles of inheritance.


When Mendel crossed short tt pea plants with short pea plants the offspring were?

When Mendel crossed short tt pea plants (homozygous recessive) with short pea plants that were heterozygous for height (Tt), the offspring would display a phenotypic ratio of 1 short (tt) to 1 tall (Tt). This is because the short plants (tt) can only contribute recessive alleles, while the heterozygous plants (Tt) can contribute either a dominant (T) or a recessive (t) allele. Therefore, half of the offspring would be tall and half would be short.


Suppose two white flowered pea plants are crossed and produce 1000 offspring how many of those offspring would you expect to have white flowers?

If both parent plants are white-flowered, then all of the 1000 offspring would be expected to have white flowers. This is because the white flower trait is a result of a homozygous genotype, and both parents would pass on the white flower allele to their offspring.

The offspring of two true-breeding plants is .?

The offspring of two true-breeding plants is also true-breeding, meaning they will consistently display the same traits as the parents. This is because true-breeding plants are homozygous for a particular trait, so when they are crossed, their offspring will also be homozygous for that trait.


When Gregor Mendel crossed purebred short plants with purebred tall plants all of the offspring were?

All the offspring were tall plants. This is because the tall trait is dominant over the short trait in Mendel's experiments on pea plants.


Why was it important to Mendel's work that peas were true-breeding?

because it helped Mendel discover which plants would be crossed to produce offspring.


When parent plants are crossed how do scientists refer to the first generation of offspring?

F1


When plants that are true breeding for different traits of a characteristic are crossed the offspring are called?

first-generation plants


Two true-breeding pea plants are crossed one with purple flowers and the other with white. Their offspring are?

If two true-breeding pea plants are crossed their offspring will show the dominant trait. The flowers will be purple or light purple.

purple petal color in pea plants is dominant to white petal color two heterozygous pea plants are crossed what is the ratio of the offspring with white petals to the number total number of offspring?

3:1 ratio Two pea plants, both heterozygous for flower color, are crossed. The offspring will show the dominant purple coloration in a 3:1 ratio


Suppose two white flowered pea plants are crossed and produce 1000 offspring how many of those offspring would you expect to have white flowers?

If both parent plants are white-flowered, then all of the 1000 offspring would be expected to have white flowers. This is because the white flower trait is a result of a homozygous genotype, and both parents would pass on the white flower allele to their offspring.


How are plant offspring like their parents and why does this happen?

Plants are offspring like their parents because of their parents DNA this happens because of fertilization


When gregor mendel crossed true breeding purple flowered plants with true breeding white flowered plants all of the offspring were purple because?

purple is dominant over white in Mendel's pea plant experiment, meaning that the offspring inherited at least one purple allele from the purple parent. This resulted in all the offspring showing the purple trait.
