Mendel observed patterns of inheritance for all of the traits he tested. The F1 generation all had a phenotype identical to one of the parents in the P generation. What results did he find for the F2 phenotypes? a. ½ had the phenotype of one P generation plant; ½ had the phenotype of the F1 parents. b. ¼ had the phenotype of the F1 generation and ¾ had the phenotype of one of the P generation parents. c. ¾ had the phenotype of the F1 generation and ¼ had the phenotype of one of the P generation parents. d. The results were not repeatable and identical for the F2 generation, only for the F1 generation.

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.
