Mendel crossed two pea plants with round seeds. All seeds of the F1 offspring were round. He then crossed an F1 plant with round seeds to a plant with wrinkled seeds and all offspring had wrinkled seeds. Finally, he intercrossed the F1 plants to produce the F2.  Which of the following statements is true? Group of answer choices

Question

Mendel crossed two pea plants with round seeds. All seeds of the F1 offspring were round. He then crossed an F1 plant with round seeds to a plant with wrinkled seeds and all offspring had wrinkled seeds. Finally, he intercrossed the F1 plants to produce the F2.  Which of the following statements is true?

Group of answer choices
the trait does not breed true
wrinkled is dominant; the F2 phenotypic ratio should be 3 wrinkled: 1 round
wrinkled is dominant; the F2 phenotypic ratio should be 3 round: 1 wrinkled
round is dominant; the F2 phenotypic ratio should be 3 round: 1 wrinkled
round is dominant; the F2 phenotypic ratio should be 1 round: 2 semi-wrinkled: 1 wrinkled
