Gregor Mendel crossed true-breeding plants with green pea pods with true-breeding plants with yellow pea pods. The resulting F1

generation all had green pea pods. What did he observe in the F2 generation?
A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.
B. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 4:1 ratio because the allele for green pea pods is dominant.
C. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 1:1 ratio because the F2 generation had the same characteristics as the parent generation.
D. Mendel observed only green pea pods because both parents had green pea pods.
E. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 1:2 ratio because the allele for yellow pea pods is dominant.

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)

Electrons are the electrons in the outer energy
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Valence

Explanation:

In an atom, the electrons at the outermost energy level is called as valence electrons. It is the valence electrons which participates and interacts with the other atoms and form bonds. The valence electrons of an atoms are important as they depict the chemical properties of an element.

Thus the valence electrons resides the outermost shell and surrounds the atomic nucleus.

Tell in your own words:<br><br> Why is it called a Solar System?
nikklg [1K]
It’s called a solar system because solar means “relating to or determined by the sun” and system means “a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network” and the solar system is a whole bunch of planets and other things that are related to the sun and working together.
