Use The Clicker To Respond. DO NOT WRITE ON THE QUIZ! True (A) or False (B)
TRUE (A) or FALSE (B):
1. The genotype an offspring inherits determines its phenotype.
2. Different varieties of the same gene (blue eyes, green eyes, etc.) are called
“characters”.
3. A person might inherit a recessive allele from a parent, but not develop that trait.
4. In univeristy, Gregor Mendel learned how to use experiments and mathematics to
study nature.
5. When Mendel crossed purple flowers with white flowers, the F1 offspring were a
mix of colors.
6. To crosspollinate two different plants, you must remove the male parts of one
flower and give it pollen from flowers of the other plant.
7. Whenever Mendel crossed two different truebreeding plants, the F1 generation
would only produce the dominant phenotype.
8. In the F2 generation of Mendel’s experiment, white flowers reappeared, but there
were more purple flowers than white.
9. Mendel found that each phenotype (height, seed shape, etc.) had a different ratio of
dominant to recessive traits. There was no common pattern that he could find
using mathematics.
10. A pea plant with “Pp” genotype will have all white flowers.
