Question
Mendel observed that pea plants with colorless seed coats always had __________ flowers and _________________ on their axils.
White, no pigmentation
Purple, no pigmentation
White, pigmentation
Purple, pigmentation
White, no pigmentation
Purple, no pigmentation
White, pigmentation
Purple, pigmentation
Hint:
White, no pigmentation
The correct answer is: White, no pigmentation
Mendel observed that pea plants with colorless seed coats always had white flowers and no pigmentation on their axils. In other words, in Mendel's pea plants, seed coat color was always associated with specific flower and axil colors.
Mendel’s observations were based on the result of pleiotropy which is the phenomenon wherein an individual gene plays its role in multiple phenotypic traits.
