ne of the traits that Mendel studied in pea plants is plant height. Tall plants are dominant with respect to dwarf plants. If the gene for this trait is denoted by the letter T, then the genotype of a dwarf pea plant is

All of the following are dominant traits of garden pea observed in Mendel’s experiment, except         . yellow seed coatpurple flowersyellow podslong stem

In 1866, Mendel published three main conclusions to his findings. Which of the following ideas was not proposed by Mendel?Characteristics are determined by hereditary unitsHereditary units are organised in chromosomesHereditary units can be dominant or recessive Hereditary units are passed on unchanged by both parents3The height of Mendel’s pea plants is controlled by a single gene with two alleles: a dominant tall allele (T) and a recessive short allele (t). In a series of F1 crosses involving one homozygous tall plant (TT) and one short plant (tt), 400 F2 offspring were produced. Approximately how many of these offspring would you expect to be short?200Zero4001004In a series of crosses involving pea plants heterozygous for the height gene, 800 offspring are produced. Approximately how many of these offspring would you expect to be tall?8002006004005Mendel’s investigations were ‘reproducible’. What is meant by this term?The pea plants could be reproducedThe investigations could be repeated by different researchers with different resultsMendel reproduced his own investigations with the same results on numerous occasionsThe investigations could be repeated by different researchers with the same results

One of the reasons that Mendel was able to discover the basic principles of genetics using pea plants is because pea plantsMultiple choice question.produce only a small amount of offspring each generation.develop slowly.exhibit traits in forms that are blended and that differ from either parental trait.self-fertilize and cross-fertilize.

8.What is a dominant trait with respect to height in pea plant. Give any two examples.

One of the reasons that Mendel was able to discover the basic principles of genetics using pea plants is because pea plants ______.
