Name the plant Mendel used for his experiment. What type of progeny was obtained
by Mendel in `F_(1)` and `F_(2)` generations when he crossed the tall and short plants? Write the lt brgt ratio he obtained in `F_(2) generation plants.

Explanation

Pea Plant/Garden pea / Pisum sativum `F_(1)`- All tall, `F_(2)`- Tall and short
Ratio Tall : Short `3: 1//1: 2 :1`
Detailed Answer:
Mendel used Pisum sativum (Pea plant) for his experiment. Mendel took a tall pea (T T) plant and a short pea (t t) plant. When he crossed both, the first filial generator `(F_(1))` obtained were tall. When `F_(1)` progeny was self-pollinated, all plants obtained in `F_(2)` generation were not tall. Instead three tall pea (dominant) plants and one short pea (recessive) plant was obtained.

Phenotypic ratio and genotypic ratio should be in same horizontal line.
`{:("Phenotypic ratio","Genotypic ratio "),("3 Tall: 1 Short ","PureTall(TT): 2 Hybrid (Tt)"),(,"1 Pure Short(tt)"):}`
