Mendel performs a cross using a true-breeding pea plant with round, yellow seeds and a true- breeding pea plant with green, wrinkled seeds. What is the probability that offspring will have green, round seeds? Calculate the probability for the F1 and F2 generations.
Use a Punnett square to predict the offspring in a cross between a dwarf pea plant (homozygous recessive) and a tall pea plant (heterozygous). What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring?
Mendel performs a cross using a true-breeding pea plant with round, yellow seeds and a true-breeding pea plant with green, wrinkled seeds. What is the probability that offspring will have green, round seeds? Calculate the probability for the F1 and F2 generations.
Mendel also studied tall and short varieties of pea plants. When he crossed tall x short plants together, the F1were tall. The tall F1 plants were self-hybridized to produce the F2. What proportion of phenotypes would be expected in the F2? 1:2:1 tall:intermediate:short 3:1 tall:short 1:1 tall:short 3:1 short:tall 1:2:1 intermediate:tall:short
Mendel performed crosses in which he used pollen from a white-flowered plant to fertilize a purple-flowered plant and pollen from a purple-flowered plant to fertilize a white-flowered plant, showing the same results with both. What did these reciprocal crosses demonstrate? A. That the plants were not sterile. B. That there was no epistasis. C. That the trait could be passed from either parent. D. B and C.
Mendel crossed a true-breeding pea plant with green pods and a true-breeding pea plant with yellow pods. All the F1 plants had green pods. Which color is recessive?
Mendel used dihybrid crosses to test the idea that alleles for two different characters assort independently. In a typical dihybrid cross (such as RrTt x RrTt), what proportions of phenotypes would be expected in the offspring? Select one: a. 9:3:3:1 b. 4:4:4:4 c. 2:2 d. 3:1 e. 100% dominant phenotype
Diagram the P1 and F1 crosses, using Mendelian notation, to show the possible genotypes found in each generation. (Remember a diagram is just the cross itself, not the progeny).
Over the years, Mendel experimented with more than 30,000 pea plants. Why did Mendel collect data on so many plants? Why didn’t he study just one cross? Hint: Read “What Are the Odds?” on page 124 before answering.
When Mendel was conducting his research, he crossed two different varieties of pea plants, one that had jagged leaves with 8 points on each leaf and one that had perfectly smooth leaves. He found that the offspring all had 4 to 5 points on each leaf. Based on what you have learned in this course, how would you explain this result to Mendel?
Mendel describes subjecting each of the 34 varieties of peas he obtained to a two-year trial. During this time he let the plants self-fertilize and observed their offspring. What was he looking for, and what was the purpose of doing this two-year trial? Why did Mendel perform "reciprocal crosses"? Someone gives you a bag of yellow peas and you plant them in the Spring. Can you predict the color of the peas that will appear in the pods on the plants grown from these peas? Would your answer be different if you had received a bag of green peas? Explain what Mendel means when he writes that the 3:1 ratio observed in the first generation from the hybrids "resolves itself" into a ratio of 2:1:1
