Answer:
D.
Explanation:
we learned about this in living environment! for example: humans used to have tails but the humans without tails offspringed with the ones with tails causing the genetics to take over making different traits appear in offspring. Therefor, the answer is D.
Answer:
A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.
Explanation:
The two true breeding plants in the parental population were homozygous (that is what true breeding means). Therefore, their cross would lead to all heterozygous offspring (see attached punnet square). Green is the dominant characteristic, so all F1 plants had a green phenotype, but Gg genotype.
The F1 cross would therefore be Gg x Gg. See attached punnet square.
The genotypes in the F2 generation are 1 GG: 2 Gg: 1 gg 1
Therefore, the phenotypic ratio is 3 green pea pods (Gg or GG): 1 yellow (gg)
