Activity 8.2 — Mendel's Monohybrid Cross
NCERT Activity 8.2: Perform Mendel's monohybrid cross — tall (TT) × short (tt) pea plants. Watch how traits are inherited through F1 and F2 generations using a Punnett square.
How To Perform
1
Parent Cross
Cross pure tall (TT) × pure short (tt) pea plants.
2
F1 Generation
Observe that all F1 offspring are tall (Tt) — dominance in action!
3
F1 Self-Cross
Allow F1 plants (Tt × Tt) to self-pollinate.
4
Punnett Square
Fill in the Punnett square step by step to see F2 results.
⚠️ Safety Notes
- •This is a simulation of Mendel's pea plant experiments.
- •No live plants or equipment are needed for this activity.
