If I have a batch of pea plants with purple flowers that I grew by crossing plants that had purple flowers (PP) with plants that had white flowers (pp), purple flowers (dominant) will be expressed in this batch of pea plants.
The part of a flowering plant that develops into a seed is the ovule.
When pollen grains land on the stigma of the correct species, they germinate. A pollen tube grows through the tissues of the flower until it reaches an ovule inside the ovary.
The nucleus of the pollen grain (male gamete) then passes along the pollen tube and joins with the nucleus of the ovule (the female gamete). This process is called fertilization.
After fertilization, the female parts of the flower develop into a fruit. The ovules become seeds and the ovary wall becomes the rest of the fruit.
Answer:
Breed "pure" mice with known genotypes that exhibit specific fur colors, and learn how traits are passed on via dominant and recessive genes. Mice can be stored in cages for future breeding, and the statistics of fur color are reported every time a pair of mice breed. Punnett squares can be used to predict results.
