Step-by-step solution
Mendel also worked with and crossed pea plants that differed in two characters, as is seen in the cross between a pea plant that has seeds with yellow colour and round shape and one that had seeds of green colour and wrinkled shape (Figure 4.7). Mendel found that the seeds resulting from the crossing of the parents, had yellow coloured and round shaped seeds.Thus , yellow colour was dominant over green and round shape dominant over wrinkled. These results were identical to those that he got when he made separate mo
