When Mendel examined the inheritance of seed colour, he crossed true-breeding green and true-breeding yellow plants. All of the plants produced were yellow seeded. He then crossed the yellow-seeded plants and found that some of the offspring were green-seeded and some were yellow-seeded. What were the genotypes of the original parents?

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.
