**ANALYZE DATA:** In the first generation of each experiment, the characteristics of the offspring all display the dominant traits of the parents, resulting in uniformity across the generations.
**ANALYZE DATA:** In the second generation, the characteristics show a classic Mendelian ratio, with both dominant and recessive traits emerging among the offspring, revealing a diversity in traits compared to the first generation.
**PATTERNS:** A consistent pattern in the data is that the first generation exhibits complete dominance, while the second generation reveals a typical 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits, indicating Mendelian inheritance.
