in pea plants, the purple allele is sufficient for making purple flowers, even if one of the homologous chromosomes carries the white allele. which of the following statements are true in this case? select all that apply.

Answer :

In the pea plant experiment, since the purple allele is sufficient in making purple flowers that means it is dominant in the first progeny.

Gregor Mendel was a 19th-century pioneer of genetics who today is remembered almost entirely for two things: being a monk and relentlessly studying different traits of pea plants. Born in 1822 in Austria, Mendel was raised on a farm and attended the University of Vienna in Austria's capital city.

   In his pea plant experiment he took seven different traits of pea plant such as - tall, dwarf, white, yellow, wrinkled, round, purple. He performed true breeding - means capable of producing one and only one type of offspring, such as when all daughter plants are round-seeded or axial-flowered.

  He observed that the parent generation was the P generation, and it included a P1 plant whose members all displayed one version of a trait and a P2 plant whose members all displayed the other version. The hybrid offspring of the P generation was the F1 (filial) generation. The offspring of the F1 generation was the F2 generation.
