Question

What is/are the main factor(s) that determine(s) the height of a plant (genetics, environment, or both)? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

Both because genetics can cause how tall a plant can be depending on its genes and the environment can be a particular way that it makes it taller like sunlight, water, and space.

Answer 2

If the environment is particularly dry, this could stunt the growth of the plant. However, if the genetics of the plant make it so that it does not need as much water to grow, it can still grow as tall as other plants.
