Which of the statements corroborates (confirms) information about Mendel's experiments? A Mendel's monohybrid experiments used pure breed plants in the P1 generation. B Mendel's monohybrid experiments F2 generation produced all heterozygotes. C Mendel's monohybrid experiments F1 generation produced all homozygotes. D Only answers A, B, and C are correct. E Only answers A and B are correct.

The illustration here shows the seven traits of garden peas that Gregor Mendel analyzed by conducting large numbers of crosses and recording the phenotypes of all their offspring over two generations. Which of the following statements is true? a. When Mendel crossed plants that were true-breeding for the seed shape trait, the $\mathrm{F}_{2}$ plants had round seeds and wrinkled seeds in a ratio of $9: 3 .$ b. When Mendel crossed true-breeding tall plants with truebreeding dwarf plants, all the $\mathrm{F}_{1}$ plants displayed the dwarf phenotype. c. When Mendel crossed true-breeding plants with green pods and true-breeding plants with yellow pods, the $\mathrm{F}_{1}$ plants had pods of an intermediate color, somewhere between green and yellow. d. When Mendel crossed homozygous tall plants and homozygous dwarf plants, the $\mathrm{F}_{2}$ progeny included one dwarf plant for every three tall plants.
Which of the following is (are) TRUE regarding Mendel's monohybrid cross experiments? 1) 100% of the F1 generation offspring showed the same phenotype 2) The results led him to propose that each individual has 2 alleles for every gene. 3) The results led him to propose the law of segregation. 4) 1 and 2 5) 1, 2, and 3
