In a cross between pure-breeding tall plants with pure-breeding short plants performed by Mendel, all of the F1 are tall. When these plants are allowed to fertilize themselves, the F2 plants occur in a ratio of 3 tall to 1 short. Which of the following is NOT a valid conclusion from these results? O A. The allele that produces the tall condition is dominant to the allele that produces the short condition. O B. The difference between tall and short stature in these lines is controlled by a single gene pair. O C. Fertilization occurs randomly between gametes carrying the tall and short alleles. D. The tall and short traits assort independently of each other in this cross. E. During production of gametes in F1 plants, the tall and short alleles segregate from each other equally into the gametes. Reset Selection VMark for Review What's This?
