Question

How did Mendel explain that it is possible that a trait is inherited but not

expressed in an organism ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The recessive trait does not express itself in the presence of the dominant trait. So, it is possible that one trait may be inherited but may not be expressed in an organism. In Mendel's experiment, when pure tall pea plants were crossed with pure dwarf pea plants, only tall pea plants were obtained in F1 generation

Explanation:

Answer 2

•••☆ʳᵉᶠᵉʳ ᵗᵒ ᵗʰᵉ ᵍⁱᵛᵉⁿ ᵃᵗᵗᵃᶜʰᵐᵉⁿᵗ☆•••

In Mendel's experiment, after crossing with pure pea plants with pure dwarf pea plants we get only hybrid tall.

And after selfing between the offspring of F1 generation we get both tall and dwarf pea plants in F2 generation.

☆ So, from the experiment, we get to know that a trait is inherited but not expressed in the organism.
