To create:
A flow chart with connections between the terms P generation, F1 generation, and F2 generation.
Concept introduction:
Mendel began with the pure-breeding pea plants because the offspring always produced progeny with the same characteristics as that of the parent plant. Mendel cross-breed these peas plants and recorded the

SINGLE-CROSS PLANT (CXD)
In the early 1900s, plant
breeders showed that crossing
individuals from two different
favorable inbred varieties
produced hybrid offspring
often more vigorous and
having more desirable traits
than offspring produced from
inbreeding. This phenomenon,
known as heterosis, led to
tremendous increases in corn
production in the United
States. In 1931, 0.1 percent of
the corn planted was hybrid
corn, resulting in an average
yield of 24.5 bushels per acre.
In 1992, almost all corn
planted in the United States
was hybrid corn, resulting in
an average yield of 135 bushels
per acre. Study the figure at
the bottom of the page, which shows the current method for
producing hybrid corn. Explain the…
