Question

The principle of _____ suggests that a plant with the genotype Tt will display a tall phenotype.

Answer 1

The answer is: Dominance

Answer 2

Dominance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mendel is known as father of genetics. He explained the concept of dominance, the law of segregation and law of independent assortment by the experiment on pea plant.

Mendel explained that the dominance trait is the trait that can express itself in the heterozygous condition and hides the expression of the other trait. The recessive trait will express in the recessive condition only. Tt is heterozygous and the tall pea plant will express itself in this condition as T is a dominant trait.

Thus, the correct answer is dominance.
