In pea plants, tall plant height is dominant over short plant height. If there are 200 short plants in the F2 generation from a cross that followed Mendel’s methods, about how many plants will be tall in that generation?
What controls traits and inheritance?
What alternate form of genes do nucleic acids have that allows them to offer variability?

Scientists often use fruit flies as a method to test hypotheses about human genes. Why are fruit flies advantageous in the study of human inheritance?
During an experiment, a scientist crosses a pea plant that has purple flowers with a pea plant that has white flowers. The plants that result from this cross in the F1 generation have both purple and white flowers. What can the scientist conclude?
