Detailed explanation-1: -During this time, Mendel observed seven different characteristics in the pea plants, and each of these characteristics had two forms (Figure 3). The characteristics included height (tall or short), pod shape (inflated or constricted), seed shape (smooth or winkled), pea color (green or yellow), and so on.
Detailed explanation-2: -There were 7 characters of the pea plant which were selected by Mendel for the experiments. The characters which were chosen by Mendel for his study were stem height, flower colour, flower position, pod shape, pod colour, seed shape, seed colour. All these characters belong to different chromosomes in the pea plant.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mendel studied the inheritance of seven different features in peas, including height, flower color, seed color, and seed shape. To do so, he first established pea lines with two different forms of a feature, such as tall vs. short height.
