When Mendel performed his initial cross on with flower color as the trait, what was the genotype of the F1 generation? When Mendel performed his initial cross on with flower color as the trait, what was the phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation?

Assume that Mendel looked simultaneously at four traits of his pea plants (and each trait exhibited dominance). If he crossed a homozygous dominant plant with a homozygous recessive plant, all the F1 offspring would exhibit the dominant phenotype. If he selfed the F1 plants, how many different types of gametes would be produced? How many different phenotypes would appear in the f2 generation? How many different genotypes would appear? what proportion of the F2 offspring would be of the fourfold recessive phenotype?

When Mendel set up a Parental (P) cross between true breeding purple and white flowered plants to generate the F1 and then allowed the F1 to self-pollinate to generate the F2 he saw a dominant to recessive ratio of 3:1. What phenotypic ratio would be expected if he crossed the F1 with the original purple parent? a) 3:1 b) 9:3:3:1 c) 1:1 d) 4:0
