How does mendel experiment on pea plants |
| Answer» Mendel chose pea plant for his experiments because of the following reasons:\tPea plant has several contrasting characters like height, flower color, seed color & shape\tSelf pollinated plant in nature\tCross pollination is easy to be done artificially\tShort life span\tEasy to cultivateMendel cross-pollinated tall pea plants with dwarf pea plants. (Pollen grains from flowers of tall plants dusted over the stigma of short plants)Mendel’s Conclusion:The ‘dwarf’ trait was also carried, but remained hidden in F1 generation. This trait got expressed only in F2 generation.\xa0 | |
