Q5. When Mendel crossed a large number of tall pea plants with short pea plants, all F1 plants were tall. The F2 generation was created by self-pollinating the F1 plants. (a) Complete a genetic cross of F1 to show the genotypes and phenotypes of the parents and offspring. (b) Complete a genetic cross of F2 to show the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring. (c) State the ratio of phenotypes expected in the F2 offspring. " (d) Mendel's First Law of inheritance states that, “...the alleles of a given locus segregate into separate gametes." Explain how the genetic diagram above proves this law. (AC 2.1)
