Question 1

Mendel suggested that the alleles for tallness and shortness in the F1 plants segregated (separated) from each other during the formation of _____

Answer 1

GAMETES

sex cells  sperm and egg

Question 2

SEGREGATION is the separation of _____pairs in the formation of _____

Answer 2

GENE pairs

formation of GAMETES

Question 3

Law of Segregation: the _____ of gene pairs in gamete formation and the _____ of gene pairs during fertilization explain Mendel’s 3:1 tall to short ratio in his F2 plants

Answer 3

SEGREGATION of gene pairs

RECOMBINATION of gene pairs
