True breeding plants were homozygous for all the characters expressed, hence inheritance of characters was better understood with the help of these plants.

Mendels Law


What is a control of a science experiment?

For instance, if you wanted to experiment on plant a, plant b, and plant c. You would put plant c to one side, treat it like a normal plant (water, feed, etc.) and call that the control. You could then experiment on plant a and plant b - feeding them differing fertilisers, allowing pests to attack the plants, and so on. At the end of the experiment, you could compare the growth of plant a and plant b to the control plant c. Though plants are mentioned above, the principle relates to any experiment - you need a control to compare against the end results of the experiment.


What is a good plant experiment?

A good plant experiment is the study of sunlight on a plant. Place one plant in sunlight and one in the shade and watch the changes between the two.


Why is it so important to control variables in an experiment?

You need to control variables in an experiment so as to make sure that only the variable you are testing and changing is the one affecting the results of your experiment. For example, in an experiment to find the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis of plant, you'll change light by putting a plant in sun and another in dark but you must not change carbon dioxide level for both plants so by that you have controlled other variables in the experiment(variables which must be the same always in the experiment).

Why was the experiment of James van helmont important?

The reason this experiment was important is because he wanted to find out if there was any other intake besides water and soil and there was and it was carbondioxide so it was important to find out carbondioxide.

What are the measurements of the heights of various plants in a experiment called?

In an experiment measuring plant heights, typically the heights of plants are recorded in either centimeters or inches. The measurements are taken from the base of the plant to the highest point of growth, such as the tip of the tallest leaf or stem. These measurements are important for assessing plant growth and health over time.


Why to destarch a plant?

a leaf (plant) should be destarched before photosynthesis investigations because the starch already present in the plant may mislead the result . hence if a destarched plant is used for the experiment then the amount of starch present at the time of the experiment will be nil and affter the experiment is compleded the amount of starch present in the leaves woul give the rate of photodynthesis as starch id prepared during photosynthesis
