Explain mendel's experiment to describe inheritance of one gene with reference to height of pea plants.

Explanation

MONOHYBRID CROSS: Mendel selected two plants . One with tall and the ohtere with dwarf to get `F_1` generation . To his surprise , he got all tall plants in the `F_1` generation . To his surprise , he got all tall palnts in the `F_1` generation .
parents : Tall plant `xx` Dwarf plant
` F_1` : to All tall plants
Thus the all cahracter did not appear .
He self crossed the ` F_1 ` plants and raised the `F_2` generation . Surprisingly he got both tall and dwarf plants in the ratio of 3: 1 respectively . This ratio is called phenotypic ratio. He repeated the experiment by taking other contrasting characters and got the same results .
` F_1 ` to tall plant `xx F_1` Tall plant
`F_2` to Tall plants : Dwarf plants
3:1
Based on these results he conclude that the tall character is dominant and the dwarf character is recessive . Then he used appropriate symbols to designate the dominate and escessive factors and small letters of the same type to denote the rescessive alleles . The monohybrid cross can be represented as below .
