In his experiment mendel first crossed tall and short peas plant and noticed that the F1 plants were all tall. in the second experiment he crossed the the F1 plants and noticed that short plants reappeared in the rate of 25% in F2 generation. in his third experiment he crossed he crossed F2 plants and noticed that when he crossed some tall plants with the shot plants the F3 generation contained short plant in frequency of 50%. after this observations mendel concluded that there were genes that could be only expressed in homozygous state but not in heterozygous state. these genes were later referred to as recessive alleles wheres the genes that prevented the expression of recessive genes were later referred to as dominant genes.
The patellar reflex can be defined as the kicking movement of the lower leg which occurs with a sudden twitch when the patellar tendon of a person is tapped. This patellar tendon is present below a person's kneecap. This reflex happens only when the leg is bended. It is impossible for patellar reflex to occur if the leg is straight as the quadriceps muscles are already contracted and a sudden kicking movement of the leg in such state could not be elicited. The patellar reflex protects the quadriceps from stretching too much.

Explanation:
National Park Service has been keeping the native ponies on Ocracoke Island since the 1960s. It is believed that these ponies arrived and left by the ships. These ships required to lower their load thus they left the ponies on the Island. These ponies are known as Ocracoke ponies and also called as Banker ponies. These ponies share a link to old Spanish horses genetically. The unique characteristics of the ponies include one fewer lumbar vertebrae, greater bone density, short necks, wide foreheads, and one fewer rib.
