Which statement describes the offspring of the F1 generation when crossing a pea plant that is true breeding for green seeds with a pea plant that is true breeding for yellow seeds?
Which statement best describes an understanding of genetics that would be missing without the work of Mendel?
During an experiment, a scientist crosses a pea plant that has purple flowers with a pea plant that has white flowers. The plants that result from this cross in the F1 generation have both purple and white flowers. What can the scientist conclude?
Which is the best example of a hypothesis leading to new experimental methods?
Why did Gregor Mendel use peas in his experiments?

Which statement describes Mendel’s hypotheses regarding gametes?
In pea plants, tall plant height is dominant over short plant height. If there are 200 short plants in the F2 generation from a cross that followed Mendel’s methods, about how many plants will be tall in that generation?
