Because all Purple flower plants are dominant and express the color purple. This can be seen in a homozygous cross, or a heterozygous cross, ( shown above ) White plants, to breed true, must be in homozygous condition.

When gregor mendel crossed true breeding purple flowered plants with true breeding white flowered plants all of the offspring were purple because?
Ture
Why were all the offsprins purple when gregor menel crossed true breeding purple flowered plants with true breeding white flowered plants?
All the offspring were purple because Mendel was dealing with simple genetic dominance. The purple true breeding parent was homozygous dominant and the true breeding white parent was homozygous recessive. When those two are crossed they create only heterozygous offspring (look up a punnett) and since this is simple dominance those heterozygous will show the phenotype of the dominant allele which is purple.
What does codominonce mean in geneticists?
Codominance is a condition where heterozyous alleles at the same site produce and intermediate result. Ex. Red flowered plant crossed with White flowered plant yields 100% Pink flowered offspring. Ex. White Shorthorn cow crossed with Red Shorthorn yields 100% roan offspring.
Suppose two white flowered pea plants are crossed and produce 1000 offspring how many of those offspring would you expect to have white flowers?

When model crossed true-breeding tall plants with true-breeding short plants all of the offspring were tall because?
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.

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.
The offspring of two true-breeding plants is .?
When two true-breeding plants are crossed, only one result is possible.
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.

When plants that are true breeding for different traits of a characteristic are crossed the offspring are called?
first-generation plants
When Mendel crossed a true breeding short plant with a true breeding tall plant all the offspring were tall which term describe the gene for tallness?
