A primitive trait is a characteristic (if regarding to humans) of a human body/personality that has not developed. For example, toe nails (we keep them as a physical burden from our ancestors, Great Apes).

What does it mean for a p plant to be true breeding?

A true breeding plant is one that consistently produces offspring with the same traits when self-pollinated or crossed with another true breeding plant of the same variety. This occurs because true breeding plants are homozygous for specific traits, meaning they have identical alleles for those traits. As a result, all offspring will inherit the same characteristics, ensuring uniformity in the traits expressed. True breeding is often utilized in genetics and agriculture to maintain desired traits in plant populations.


What 7 plant traits did Gregor Mendel study?

What are 2 groups of primitive primates?

It depends on what you mean by "primitive." The strepsirrhine primates and tarsiers have many traits that are ancestral for primates. However, strepsirrhines have more of these traits. Their group includes the lorises (and relatives) and the lemurs (including the Aye-aye).
