In Mendel?s experiments, if the gene for tall (T₁) plants was incompletely dominant over the gene for short (T₂) plants, what would be the result of crossing two T₁T₂ plants? A) 25% tall, 25% intermediate, and 50% short B) 50% tall, 25% intermediate, and 25% short C) All the offspring would be tall. D) All the offspring would be intermediate. E) 25% tall, 50% intermediate, and 25% short

In the case of incomplete dominance, crossing two heterozygous (T1T2) plants would result in a 1:2:1 phenotypic ratio. This means 25% would be homozygous dominant (tall), 50% would be heterozygous (intermediate), and 25% would be homozygous recessive (short).
