Question

Which character was dominant among the 7 characters in Mendel's experiment?

• A. Plant height - Dwarf
• B. Flower position - Terminal
• C. Pod colour - Green
• D. Seed colour - Green

Answer 1

The correct option is C Pod colour - Green

Among the given options, green pod colour is the dominant character. All other options are recessive characters. Mendel observed seven traits that are easily recognized and apparently only occur in one of two forms.
Flower colour - purple or white
Flower position - Axil or terminal
Stem length - Long or short
Seed shape - Round or wrinkled
Seed colour - Yellow or green
Pod shape - Inflated or constricted
Pod colour - Yellow or green

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
