Question

Which would have most likely stopped Mendel from finding a pattern in his results? A.If having a wrinkled seed had been a recessive trait B.If garden peas reproduced more quickly C.If seed shape did not have a clearly dominant form D.If having a smooth seed had been a dominant trait

Answer 1

Answer – C. If the seed shape did not have a clearly dominant form
In doing his research on inheritance, Mendel studied seven different traits in peas, namely – height, flower color, seed color, and seed shape. Actually in Mendel’s study, seed shape had a very clear dominant form; having a smooth seed was a dominant trait and having a wrinkled seed was a recessive trait. If this clear dominant form could not be established, then Mendel’s experiment would have ceased to progress. Option B is not the answer because rate of reproduction was not one of the features that Mendel studied in the research. Options A and D are not the answers because they were the actual findings of the study.
