In a homozygous pea plant, axial flowers (A) are dominant over terminal
flowers (a).
State Mendel’s Law of Dominance.
Mendel’s Law of Dominance:
Of a pair of contrasting characters present together, only one can express itself, while the other remains suppressed. The one which is expressed is the
dominant and the one which is not expressed is the recessive.
In a homozygous pea plant, axial flowers (A) are dominant over terminal flowers (a).
Draw a Punnett square board to show the gametes and offsprings when both the parent plants are heterozygous for axial flowers.

In a homozygous pea plant, axial flowers (A) are dominant over terminal
flowers (a).
