he crossed two pure lines
Because it's used to show up in only The F2 generation
the F1 generation
they were all hybrids
Mendel used all tall plants in his F1 experiment because that was the offspring from his cross of a pure tall plant and a pure short plant. By crossing two of the tall plants from F1, he proved that the recessive gene (t) was still present in the F1 generation, despite the phenotypes of all of these plants being tall. (The result of the F1 cross gave 3 tall plants and 1 short plant.)
Mendels' f2 generation produce a 3:1 ratio of tall plants. By crossing true tall with true short , homologous chromosomes, he wound up with three types of plants, true tall, true short, and tall with a short allele.
he crossed two pure lines
the traits were recessive
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.
the F1 is 3:1
Because it's used to show up in only The F2 generation
F1 or first filial
the F1 generation
he crossed two pure lines
they were all hybrids
it showed him a new different generation of offspring. :D
