Pea plants pollinate itself because pea flowers have both male & female parts. Normally pollen that comes from the male of the pea flower fertilizes the female egg cells of the same flower.
Both yellow pea plants and green pea plants can produce pea pods containing seeds that can be cooked and eaten as a nutritious vegetable. The color of the seeds inside the pods will match the color of the parent plant's seeds, so yellow pea plants will produce yellow seeds while green pea plants will produce green seeds.
This was an example of tallness being a dominant phenotypic trait in pea plants
peaplants dont produce fruits they produce vegtables
They produce many offspring
A mating between a purebred purple flowered pea plant (which is typically dominant) and a purebred white flowered pea plant (which is recessive) would produce offspring that all exhibit the dominant trait. Therefore, the resulting offspring would all have purple flowers. This is based on Mendelian genetics, where the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele.
Pea pods do not grow on trees. Pea plants are low-growing vines that produce pods containing peas. The pods develop on the plant's stems and are typically harvested when they are mature.
Yes, if you plant a pea seed it will germinate and grow into a pea plant if the growing conditions are suitable. Pea plants are annual plants that belong to the legume family and typically have a self-pollinating nature.
A pea plant is a dicotyledon (dicot).
green peas if it does not also have a dominant allele for yellow peas.
A pea plant is a dicotyledon (dicot).
Gregor Mendel used pea plants for his hereditary experiments
No, the short pea trait is recessive and the tall pea plant trait is dominant. This means that if the plant is a hybrid, it has to be a tall pea plant. The dominant traits "mask" the recessive traits. The plant take one trait from their mom and one from their dad. If either the mom or the dad was not a tall, not hybrid pea plant then their kids would have to be tall be cause they would have one dominant, tall trait
