If you crossed two tall plants and the seeds produced a ratio of three tall to one short, how would you explain the one short plant (since neither of the adult plants were short and tall is dominant to short)?
They were both purebred dominate
There was a mutation in the reproduction
Both parents are purebred recessive.
Both of the parents were carriers for the short gene.
Which of the following statements was not a reason why pea plants were a great tool to study heredity?
Traits were easily observable
Flowers could be protected to prevent accidental pollination
Plants grow in a relative short period of time
Pea plants grow well in winter
An allele is a form of a gene.
