In order to obtain the `F_1` generation, Mendel pollianted a pure breeding tall plant with a pure breeding dwarf plant. But for getting the `F_1` generation, he simply self pollinated the tall `F_1` plants. Why?

In a monohybrid cross, pink coloured flowers are dominant over white coloured flowers. If parent plants belong to pure breeding dominant, trait and pure breeding recessive trait, what will be the phenotype or morphological feature of F_1 generation ? If F_1 plants are self-fertilised, what would be the phenotypic ratio, or how many dominant and recessive traits will be produced in the progeny ? Explain with an illustration .

In monohybrid cross of red and white flower, Mendel got only red flower. On setting the F_1 plants having red flower he got both plants with red and white flower. Explain the basis of using RR and rr symbols to represent the genotype of plants of parental generation.

    In peas, tallness is dominant over dwarfness and red colour of flowers is dominant over the white colour. When a tall platn bearing red flowers was pollinated with dwarf plant bearing white flowers, the different phenotypic groups were obtained in the progeny in number (a)Tall, red - 138 (b)Tall, white - 132 (c)Dwarf, red - 136 and (d)Dwarf, white - 128. Mention the genotypes of the two parents and of the four offspring types.
