Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When Mendel crossed tall (Tt) plants with tall plants, the offspring were sometimes tall (TT or Tt) and sometimes a mix of tall and short (tt). This is because the tall plants carried a dominant allele (T) for height, while the short plants carried a recessive allele (t) for height. When the two were crossed, their offspring received one allele from each parent, resulting in a mix of genotypes and phenotypes.
