Gregor Mendel used Pea pod plants as they were easy to use, and fast growing. As in some plants, growing to full maturity may take months and even years. Pea pod plants are quick growers and extremely fast at maturing. Benefits:
-Each pea in the pod is an offspring, meaning multiple offspring per plant
-Colored flowers
-Rapid generations due to life cycle
-Cross- and self-pollination
Because they have a short growing season, faster results for experiments.
Mendel did his studies on pea pod plants.
A scientist who experimented with garden peas and other plants in his spare time, Mendel discovered the fundamental principles of genetics. Between 1856 and 1863 he grew at least 28,000 pea plants and analyzed characteristics such as height, flower color, and pod shape.
Hi, The Austrian monk Gregor Mendel grew pea plants to find out the Law of Segregation and Law of Independent Assortment. Gregor Mendel used two true breeding plants with distinctive traits and fertilized hybrids from them. He set up seven traits which he was going to inspect, they included: seed shape, seed color, seed coat color, pod shape, pod color, flower position, and plant height. As the hybrid only should one possible outcome from each trait, and in the second level of hybrid other traits reappeared again, Mendel came up with two laws. The first saying that separate alleles pass independently and only one allele from each parent is passed to the offspring.
Mendel studied seven traits: Height of the plants (stunted or normal); Flower color (purple or white); Pea color (Green or yellow); Pod color (Green or yellow); Position of flowers on stem (axial or terminal); and Pod shape (inflated or constricted).
Gregor Mendel studied the following characteristics in pea plants:1. Flower color - purple as dominant, white as recessive2. Flower position - axial as dominant, terminal as recessive3. Seed color - yellow as dominant, green as recessive4. Seed shape - round as dominant, wrinkled as recessive5. Pod shape - inflated as dominant, constricted as recessive6. Pod color - green as dominant, yellow as recessive7. Stem length - tall as dominant, dwarf as recessiveCampbell, Neil A., et al. Biology. 8th ed. San Francisco: Pearson Benjamin Cummings, 2008. 265.

yes because before all of this he studied the height of pea pod and the struture, height therefore yes he knew about chromosomes
they grew quickly, are self-pollinating, and come in many varieties they grew quickly, are self-pollinating, and come in many varieties
Mendel used pea pod plants for his early experiments. See http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/information/biography/klmno/mendel_gregor.html

Besides flower color, Mendal studied seed shape, pod color, and plant height.
It depends on the type of plant. however some of the morecommon type include height color, leaf type, color changes, and fruit type. Gregor Mendel did many experiments on plant and heredity.
