Mendel found that paired pea traits were either dominant or recessive. When pure-bred parent plants were cross-bred, dominant traits were always seen in the progeny, whereas recessive traits were hidden until the first-generation (F1) hybrid plants were left to self-pollinate. Heres the link for more Info on him. He's pretty cool xD http://biotechlearn.org.nz/themes/mendel_and_inheritance/mendel_s_principles_of_inheritance

I kind of do.

Okay All you have to do is make the two top squares dominant T  T  and the two left hand squares T t, Then you cross them to get new offspring.

Hopefully that's how you do it, it's been so long since i've done these. But I used to be pretty good at it.
