Question

question 2
mendels first experiments
what happened to the green trait in mendels pea plants?
○ the pea plants produced 50% less green seeds
○ nothing happened to the green gene
○ it disappeared and it will never come back.
○ it was hidden by the dominant yellow gene (it temporarily disappeared)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In Mendel's first pea plant experiment, crossing true-breeding yellow and green seed plants resulted in all yellow F₁ progeny. The green trait is recessive, so it is masked (not eliminated) by the dominant yellow trait in heterozygous F₁ plants, and can reappear in future generations.

Answer:

It was hidden by the dominant yellow gene (It temporarily disappeared)
