f1 Generation
The F2 generation showed hidden traits in all plants of Mendel's experiments. This generation resulted from crossing the hybrid F1 generation plants, allowing recessive traits to resurface and become visible in the offspring.
F1 generation
Recessive alleles are known for skipping a generation. This is because the phenotype associated with a recessive allele is only expressed when an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele, one from each parent. If one parent carries the allele but does not exhibit the trait, it can appear to "skip" a generation before being expressed.
Yes, a recessive allele is only expressed when an individual has two copies of that allele (homozygous recessive) or when the dominant allele is absent. It is "hidden" in the presence of a dominant allele.

The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.

Mendel proposed the concept of dominant and recessive traits, where recessive traits are masked in the F1 generation but can reappear in the F2 generation when two carriers of the recessive trait combine and show the trait. This is known as the Law of Segregation, where pairs of alleles separate during gamete formation, leading to the reemergence of hidden traits.
Wrinkled seeds are recessive The F1generation carried recessive alleles.
