Question

Suppose that Mendel's hypothesis that inheritance is "particulate" rather than due to blending were wrong. Which observation would he have not made? A. There are two distinct flower colors in pea plants. B. White-flowered plants are true-breeding. C. Crossing true-breeding purple-flowered and white-flowered plants produced all purple-flowered plants. D. Crossing two purple-flowered heterozygotes produced purple-flowered and white-flowered plants.

Answer 1

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Mendel, known as the father of genetics, gave the theory of inheritance. If the Mendel's hypotheses that inheritance is particulate rather than due to blending were wrong then he would have not made the observation that Crossing between two purple-flowered heterozygotes plants produced purple-flowered and white-flowered plants.
