Tallness is likely dominant in this scenario, as all offspring displaying the tall phenotype suggests that the tall trait is being expressed. This indicates that the tall allele is likely dominant over the short allele in pea plants.
If the dominant allele for pea shape is more prevalent in the population, then the probability of a gamete receiving a dominant allele for pea shape will be higher. The frequency of the dominant allele in the gene pool directly affects the likelihood of it being passed on to offspring through gametes during reproduction.
Mendel examined one trait at a time in his pea plant experiments. For each trait, he had two choices: the dominant allele and the recessive allele. Therefore, there were two choices for each pea plant trait that Mendel examined.
If smooth peas are dominant over wrinkled peas, it means that when a plant with one smooth pea allele and one wrinkled pea allele reproduces, all of its offspring will have smooth peas. This is because the dominant allele (smooth) masks the expression of the recessive allele (wrinkled) in the offspring's phenotype.
no!
i dont know about big or small, but the dominant allele for tall and short is tall (T=Tall and t=short).
The alleles controlling the character in a heterozygous pea plant can be described as one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele determines the plant's phenotype, while the recessive allele is masked in the presence of the dominant allele.
Yes, a dwarf pea plant can have a dominant allele if the gene responsible for dwarfism is dominant. This means that the presence of the dominant allele would result in the dwarf phenotype, while the recessive allele would result in the tall phenotype.

green peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for yellow peas.
yellow peas
TT or Tt
If a pea plant has a recessive allele for green peas, it will produce green peas only if both alleles are recessive. If it carries one dominant allele for yellow peas and one recessive allele for green peas, it will produce yellow peas because the dominant allele will be expressed.
If the pea plant has the genetic to be small in the homozygous state, then it will be and conversely so. One of Mendel's experiments was to cross the purebred tall with the purebred small to see which trait was dominant. The allele for tallness is dominant in the pea plant,.
Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals, so only the dominant allele's phenotype is expressed. Recessive alleles are only expressed when an individual is homozygous for that allele. This means that dominant alleles typically determine the phenotype when present, while recessive alleles only show their effects when no dominant allele is present.
