A homozygous tall, purple-flowered pea is crossed with short white-flowered pea. Tall and purple-flowered traits are dominant in short and white-flowered traits. Find the genotype and phenotype of the F1 generation. Predict the outcome of F2 generation by crossing the offspring from F1 generation. Give the genotype, phenotype, genotypic ratio, and phenotypic ratio of the F2.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
