What is it about pea plants that allows them to be self-pollinating?

Some plants self-pollinate without the aid of pollen vectors (such as wind or insects). This method of pollination is seen most often in some legumes ( pea is a legume). In another legumes the flowers open and remain receptive to insect cross pollination during the day. If this is not accomplished, the flowers self-pollinate as they are closing. Most self-pollinating plants have small, relatively inconspicuous flowers that shed pollen directly onto the stigma, sometimes even before the bud opens. Maybe this is the case with peas.
Eighty percent of all flowering plants are hermaphroditic, meaning they contain both sexes in the same flower,

Why do pea plant have tendrils on them?
Plants use the tendrils to anchor themselves to any available support. This allows the plants to grow better.
The cross between the pea plants yielded 78 pea plants with axial flower position and 80 pea plants?
yes
What would happen if you cross pollinate pea plants?
You get pea plants.
What does this indicate about Rachel's pea plants?
The pea plants have genetic variation.
What happened when mendell crossed pusrebred tall pea plants with purebred short pea plants?
he got tall pea plants that were heterozygotes
The cross between the pea plants yielded 78 pea plants with axial flower position and 80 pea plants with terminal flower position What are the genotypes of the pea plants involved in the cross?
seriosly i dont know
What kind of pea plants did Mendel use?
Smooth yellow pea plants and wrinkly green peas.
What types of plants did gregor Mendel work with?
explain how Gre gor Mendell obtained pureline strans of pea plants for use in his studies of genetics.
what do true breeding pea plants always produce?
A specific trait. There are true-breeding tall pea plants and true-breeding short pea plants, etc... .
What did Mendel wonder about the pea plants?
mendel worked with pea plants because they were easy to grow.
Mendel used pea plants to investigate?
Mendel observed the characteristics of pea plants which were passed to new generations of pea plants from the parent plants to reveal the nature of genetic inheritance.
In pea plants tall (T) plants are dominant over short (t) plants. If a heterozygous (Tt) pea plant is crossed with a homozygous dominant (TT) pea plant all of the resulting pea plants should be tall (?
Dominant Allele
