Is photosynthesis for plants an inherited trait?
yes
Why do plants avoid pollinating themselves?
Some plants have a hermaphrodite trait while other do not. This trait can be activated through any number of processes and conditions, generally this trait turns on when the plant undergoes stress.
What was the main experiments Gregor Mendel carried out?
In mendels first experiments, he crossed pea plants to study seven different characteristics. For example he crossed plants that had purple flowers with plants that had whit flowers, the offsprings from such a cross are called first- generation plants. All of his first generation plants had purple flowers. One trait was always present in the first generation , and the other trait seemed to disappear. Mendel chose to call the trait that appeared the dominant trait. Because the other trait seemed to fade into the background, Mendel called it recessive trait.
What was the ratio of tail to short plants in the f2 generation of Mendel's experiments?
100% heterozygous pea plants. Showing the dominant trait
When you think of the trait of the parent plants why is this result surprising?
what trait or traits did the plant in the f generation to the offspring in the F2 gen. what did the difference in the F1 and F2 offspring show Mandel
What is a morphological trait?
a trait based on appearance, i believe.
When a person has an undesirable trait and won't consciously acknowledge it they may see this trait in others This is an example of the defense mechanism?
Projection.
What is the appearance of a heredity trait?
The appearance of a hereditary trait would be called the organisms phenotype. The morphological and behavioral characteristics of the organism.
What is the explanation for the evolution of thorns?
Thorns are a plants systematic defense against predation by herbivores. In plants with this defense there must have been a variant that had a proto-thorn that helped it defend against herbivores and leave more descendants with the thorn trait. ( simplistic explanation, but valid )

If the alleles for traits in pea plants did not segregate during gamete formation and offspring that were recessive for a trait could be produced only by crossing two plants that where recessive?
Yes.
Why do plants avoid pollinating themselves?
Some plants have a hermaphrodite trait while other do not. This trait can be activated through any number of processes and conditions, generally this trait turns on when the plant undergoes stress.
Is hypocrisy a defense mechanism?
Hypocrisy is more likely a behavioral trait or characteristic rather than a defense mechanism. It involves professing beliefs or virtues that one does not possess or practice themselves. Defense mechanisms are unconscious psychological strategies to protect oneself from unpleasant emotions or situations.
What are hybrids for plants?
Each time Mendel studied a trait, he crossed two plants with different expressions of the trait and found that the new plants all looked like one of the two parents. He called these new plants hybrids because they received different genetic information, or different alleles, for a trait from each parent.
In pea plants the tallness trait moving separately from the color trait is an example of?
In pea plants the tallness trait moving separately from the color trait is an example of Mendel's 2nd law of Independent assortment. It states the appearance of one gene will not affect the appearance of another gene.
