m four o'clock plants, reciprocal crosses are performed with a green plant and a white plant. How will the offspring of the reciprocal crosses look? O The offspring of both crosses will be green. O The offspring will be white if the egg came from the white plant and green if the egg came from the green plant. O The offspring will be white if the sperm came from the white plant and green if the sperm came from the green plant. The offspring of both crosses will be variegated.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
