Figure 19-24 Diagrams One of Mendel's Experiments Using the Round

question 26

Multiple Choice

Figure 19-24 diagrams one of Mendel's experiments using the round and wrinkled seed traits. Figure 19-24
Which of the following statements about the experiment diagrammed in Figure 19-28 is TRUE?

• A)If you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F₂ generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants, you would get more round-seeded pea plants in the next generation than if you crossed all the round-seeded pea plants from the F₁ generation with true-breeding wrinkle-seeded pea plants.
• B)The reason you do not see wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F₁ generation is because the round-seeded pea plants used to create the F₁ generation were not true-breeding strains.
• C)The gene for round-seeded pea plants is on a different chromosome from the gene for wrinkle-seeded pea plants, which is why you get 25% wrinkle-seeded pea plants in the F₂ generation.
• D)If you crossed the round-seeded pea plants from the F₂ generation with the wrinkle-seeded pea plants from the F₂ generation, you should get 100% round-seeded pea plants.
