Mendel took tall pea plants and short pea plants and produced `F_(1)` progeny through cross fertilisation. What did Mendel observe in the `F_1` progeny ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To answer the question about what Mendel observed in the F1 progeny after cross-fertilizing tall and short pea plants, we can break down the solution into the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Parent Plants**: - Mendel started with two types of pea plants: tall (dominant trait) and short (recessive trait). - The tall plants are represented by the allele 'T' (dominant) and the short plants by 't' (recessive). ...
