A specific trait. There are true-breeding tall pea plants and true-breeding short pea plants, etc... .
all offspring in every generation will have the same characteristics of parent plants
100%
Mendel studied pea plants. He chose strains that bred true for traits like pea color, flower color, and height. By crossing plants that bred true for these traits he was able to determine that offspring were not a "blend" of their parents and that traits were passed on by what we now know as genes in patterns that could be predicted from one generation to the next.
The pea plants have genetic variation.
