Detailed explanation-1: -Peas were a good model system, because he could easily control their fertilization by transferring pollen with a small paintbrush. This pollen could come from the same flower (self-fertilization), or it could come from another plant’s flowers (cross-fertilization).
Detailed explanation-2: -A test cross can be performed to determine whether an organism expressing a dominant trait is a homozygote or a heterozygote. In pea plants, round peas (R) are dominant to wrinkled peas (r). You do a test cross between a pea plant with wrinkled peas (genotype rr) and a plant of unknown genotype that has round peas.
