Detailed explanation-1: -Dominant traits are those that are inherited unchanged in a hybridization. Recessive traits become latent, or disappear in the offspring of a hybridization. The recessive trait does, however, reappear in the progeny of the hybrid offspring. An example of a dominant trait is the violet-colored flower trait.
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants inherit traits from their parent plants. Some common inherited characteristics are flower color, flower position, seed color, seed shape, seed pod shape, pod color, leaf pattern, and stem length.
Detailed explanation-3: -Flower color is the result of pigment molecules accumulating in cells, but it’s not as simple as just making pigment. The location, type of pigment, and amount produced, are all very important. These aspects are genetically controlled.
Detailed explanation-4: -The color of the flowers is an inherited trait. The general height of the plants, the length of the roots, and the shapes of the leaves are all inherited characteristics.
