Some people have freckles, and some people do not have freckles. If a child has freckles, at
least one parent has freckles. However, the child may have a sibling that does not have freckles.

freckles.
Which statement best describes an understanding of genetics that would be missing without
the work of Mendel? - answers-Some alleles are dominant, and some alleles are recessive.
The table below summarizes the traits that Mendel examined during his experiments.
What do these characteristics all have in common? - answers-They can all be easily observed.
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? - answers-600
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? - answers-
