-as soon as photosynthesis starts
Even the little new seeds grown-up from the food reserves, but start making their owm food as they see sunlight
It synthesizes proteins and lipids, and puts them in vesicles and sends it to where it has to go
Mendel was able to attribute the variation observed in the offspring of his experiment to the controlled fertilization process.
Mendel was able to control pollination and, thus, the fertilization process in the pea plants used for his experiment.
Mendel was able to effectively predict the outcome with self-pollination or cross-pollination with different results coming from each. Thus, he logically concluded that the variation observed in the offspring of his crosses is due to the fact that he controlled the fertilization process.
