Question
Mendel believed that the characteristics of pea plants are determined by the:
Inheritance of factors from both parents.
Inheritance of factors from a single parent.
Relative health of the parent plants during pollination.
None of the above.
Inheritance of factors from both parents.
Inheritance of factors from a single parent.
Relative health of the parent plants during pollination.
None of the above.
Hint:
Inheritance of factors from both parents determine the characters of a pea plant.
The correct answer is: Inheritance of factors from both parents.
- During gamete formation, the pairs of alleles segregate from each other and so each gamete receives only one of the alleles
- Fertilization leads to the combining of the gametes from both the parents therefore bringing one allele from each parent together in the daughter cell.
- Thus the character of an organism is determined by both the parents.

How is incomplete dominance and co-dominance different from a normal Mendelian cross?
incomplete dominance, only one allele in the genotype is seen in the phenotype.
