he crossed two pure lines
The original generation for pea plants in Mendel's experiment is called the P generation, or parental generation. This generation consisted of the true-breeding plants that Mendel used to establish the traits he studied. The P generation was crossed to produce the F1 generation, which exhibited the traits inherited from the P generation.
Because it's used to show up in only The F2 generation
Mendel's F1 generation plants showed only one of the two traits present in the parental generation. This indicated that the trait expressed in the F1 generation was dominant, while the other trait was recessive.
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.
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.
the F1 is 3:1

the traits were recessive
The first generation of offspring from a cross is called the F1 generation.
Mendel used the term "dominant" to describe a trait that emerged in the F1 generation.

The phenotype of the F1 generation was all tall.
