What is one of the reasons why Gregor Mendel chose to study pea plants?

A plant can produce either purple flowers or white flowers. The purple flower color is dominant over the white flower color. What is the ratio of the offspring with purple flowers to the total number of offspring if two plants that are heterozygous for purple flowers are crossed?

Why did Gregor Mendel choose to use purebred plants in his experiments?

Which describes the mating of organisms that have different homozygous alleles for a single trait?

The Punnett square predicts the ratio of genotypes in the offspring, based on the genotypes of the parents. In this cross, tallness (H) is dominant to shortness (h).Based on the Punnett square, what is the phenotype of the offspring?

Purple flowers are dominant over white flowers. A heterozygous purple flower is crossed with another heterozygous purple flower. What will the ratio of purple to white be?
