What observation did Mendel make about the F1 progeny plants?

Step-by-step solution

Mendel where he crossed tall and dwarf pea plants to study the inheritance of one gene (Figure 4.2). He collected the seeds produced as a result of this cross and grew them to generate plants of the first hybrid generation. This generation is also called the Filial1 progeny or the F1 . Mendel observed that all the F1 progeny plants were tall , like one of its parents; none were dwarf (Figure 4.3). He made similar observations for the other pairs of traits – he found that the F1 always resembled either one of the pa
