The synthesis of starch in pea seeds is controlled by a single gene. This gene has two alleles,$B$ and $b$. If the shape of the pea seed is considered as the phenotype,what type of inheritance does this represent?

An organism's genetic constitution is called its

Select the correct statement:

Mendel published his work on the inheritance of characters in $1865$,but it remained unrecognized until $1900$ because:
$(a)$ He could not provide any physical proof for the existence of factors.
$(b)$ His concept of factors as stable,discrete units that controlled the expression of traits did not find acceptance from his contemporaries.
$(c)$ Mendel's approach of using mathematics to explain biological phenomena was considered ahead of its time and unconventional.
$(d)$ Communication was not easy (as it is now),and his work could not be widely publicized.

Dominant alleles are expressed in

According to Mendel,the alternative forms of a gene are called .........
