Was Mendel's P generation heterozygous?
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 percentage of genotypes would most likely be found in the f1 generation offspring?
If the parent generation consisted of a homozygous dominant parent and a homozygous recessive parent, then the F1 generation would be 100% heterozygous.
What did Gregor Mendel call the parent plants?
Gregor Mendel called the parent plants in his experiments "P generation," which stood for parental generation.
When a tall homozygous plant was crossed with a short homozygous plant the F1 offspring were all tall. No short plants were present in the F1 generation. Which principle does this situation represent?
This situation represents Mendel's principle of dominance. In this cross, the tall allele is dominant over the short allele, resulting in all F1 offspring exhibiting the tall phenotype. Since both parent plants are homozygous, the F1 generation inherits one tall allele from the tall parent and one short allele from the short parent, but only the dominant tall trait is expressed.
When Mendel breed pure breed pea plants Why did all the offspring only take on the trait of one parent?
Because they were all homozygous.

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.

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.
Why is height an exception to Mendel's principles of heredity?
although its genetic its traits arent the offspring of the parent generation.
In crossing a homozygous recessive with a heterozygote what is the chance of getting a homozygous recessive phenotype in the F1 generation?
1/2 or 50%. The homozygous recessive gentoype contains two recessive alleles for the gene for a trait. So the homozygous recessive individual can pass on only recessive alleles to an offspring. The heterozygous individual has one dominant and one recessive allele for the gene for a trait. So the heterozygous individual can pass on either a dominant or a recessive allele to an offspring. So if an offspring inherits a recessive allele from the heterozygous parent, along with the recessive allele from the homozygous recessive parent, it will have the homozygous recessive genotype and phenotype.
Why is human height an exception to Mendel's principles heredity?
although its genetic its traits arent the offspring of the parent generation.

When mendel crossed a strain of tall pea plants with a strain of short pea plants he observed that all of the plants in the F generation were tall this suggests that?
All of the offspring had at least one dominant tall allele. All of the offspring in the F1 generation were heterozygous "Tt" meaning they each had one tall allele "T" and one short allele "t". It also suggest that one parent was homozygous tall TT and the other was homozygous short "tt."
