Why Peas? Peas contain both gametes in the same flower Pollen contains sperm produced by the stamen Ovary contains eggs inside the flower Pollen carries sperm to the eggs for fertilizationPollen carries sperm to the eggs for fertilization
Self-fertilizationSelf-fertilization can occur in the same flower can occur in the same flowerCross-fertilizationCross-fertilization can occur between flowers can occur between flowers

Mendel’s Experiments- Terms
Mendel’s ExperimentsFirst Generation (FFirst Generation (F11) )
Mendel grew seeds from a cross Mendel grew seeds from a cross between green-seed and yellow-seed between green-seed and yellow-seed plants. All of the offspring had yellow plants. All of the offspring had yellow seeds.seeds.
Second Generation (FSecond Generation (F22) )
Mendel allowed the plants in the 1Mendel allowed the plants in the 1stst generation to self pollinate. ¾ of the generation to self pollinate. ¾ of the plants had yellow seeds and ¼ had green.plants had yellow seeds and ¼ had green.

A plant could have:A plant could have:
2 alleles for tallness (TT)2 alleles for tallness (TT)
2 alleles for shortness (tt)2 alleles for shortness (tt)
1 allele for tallness and 1 for shortness (Tt) 1 allele for tallness and 1 for shortness (Tt)
The 2 alleles are located on different copies The 2 alleles are located on different copies of a chromosome – one copy inherited of a chromosome – one copy inherited from the female parent and one from the from the female parent and one from the male parentmale parent
Rule of dominanceRule of dominancePea plants that have at least 1 allele for Pea plants that have at least 1 allele for tallness (TT or Tt) are tall because the allele tallness (TT or Tt) are tall because the allele for tallness is dominant over the allele for for tallness is dominant over the allele for shortnessshortnessThe only way a plant can be short is if both The only way a plant can be short is if both height alleles are for a short plant (tt)height alleles are for a short plant (tt)
HomozygousHomozygous – an organisms 2 alleles for a – an organisms 2 alleles for a trait are the same (TT, tt)trait are the same (TT, tt)
HeterozygousHeterozygous - an organisms 2 alleles for a - an organisms 2 alleles for a trait are different (Tt)trait are different (Tt)
Phenotypes & GenotypesPhenotypes & Genotypes2 organisms can look alike 2 organisms can look alike but have different gene but have different gene combinationscombinations
PhenotypePhenotype – the way an – the way an organism looks and organism looks and behaves (tall or short)behaves (tall or short)
GenotypeGenotype – the gene – the gene combination an organism combination an organism contains (TT, Tt, tt)contains (TT, Tt, tt)
Law of SegregationLaw of Segregation
