**Look in your Dihybrid Cross Notes** In pea plants, the round seed allele is dominant over the wrinkled seed allele, and the yellow seed allele is dominant over the green seed allele. The genes for seed texture and those for seed color are on different chromosomes. A plant heterozygous for seed texture and seed color is crossed witha plant that is wrinkled and heterozygous for seed color. *R = round, r= wrinkled, Y= yellow, y = green 1) What is parent one's genotype? 2) What is parent one's phenotype? 3) What is parent two's genotype? 4) What is parent two's phenotype?

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
