The statement describes the Law of dominance and recessive. This law states that when two different alleles for a trait are present, one allele (the dominant one) can mask the effect of the other allele (the recessive one). In this case, the allele for green peas is dominant over the allele for yellow peas.
Which one of Mendel’s principles does the following statement describe?
In pea plants, when the allele for green peas is present at the same time as the allele of yellow peas, then the allele of green peas will cover up the allele for yellow peas.
