This question deals with Mendelian Genetics. Read each part carefully before you answer it. In the following questions, assume green pea pods are dominant over yellow pea pods.   a) If a pea plant that is Heterozygous for pod color is crossed with a pea plant with yellow pods, what do you expect to see in the offspring (the f1 generation)? Specifically, what genotypes, what phenotypes, and in what ratios? (Use G for the green pod gene and g for the yellow pod gene.) (It is usually helpful to write out all the possible genotypes and give the phenotype for each genotype before answering the specific question.)

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.
