(ie; white or purple petals, brown or black hair, blue or brown eyes) True-breeding: organisms that produce offspring of the same variety through a lot of generations of self-pollinations. F1 generation: the hybrid generation of the p generation. F2 generation: the hybrid generation of the f1 generation. Mendel crossed purple-flowered pea plants and white-flowered pea plants.
