fertilization) or can cross pollen from fertilization) or can cross pollen from 1 plant to another (cross-pollination)1 plant to another (cross-pollination)

Mendel’s HypothesisMendel’s Hypothesis There are 2 copies of a gene, one from each There are 2 copies of a gene, one from each
parent, for each inherited characteristicparent, for each inherited characteristic There are different versions of genes called There are different versions of genes called
“alleles”“alleles” Tall or shortTall or short
When both versions are present one may be When both versions are present one may be dominant (completely expressed) and the other dominant (completely expressed) and the other may be recessive (not expressed when may be recessive (not expressed when dominant is present)dominant is present)
When you form gametes, alleles separate When you form gametes, alleles separate independently so only one allele in each gameteindependently so only one allele in each gamete
