Answer:
The correct answer is peas have characteristics that have two forms.
Gregor Mendel used pea plant <em>Pisum sativum </em>as a model plant for his experiments. There are many applications behind his choice, one of which is observable characteristics with contrasting traits.
Pea plant has many observable characteristics which exist in two forms for example:
- Plant size (tall or dwarf)
- Pea color (green or yellow)
- Pod shape (yellow or green)
- Flower color (purple or white)
- Pea shape (round or wrinkled)
Other benefits were like: short life cycle, it produces a good number of offspring in a cross, easy to breed or cross-pollinate, hybrids were liable, bisexual flowers which makes it easy to produce true-breeding etc.
Answer:
Nodes of Ranvier are gaps in the myelin sheath coating on the neural axon. The myelin allows the electrical impulse to move quickly down the axon. The nodes of Ranvier allow for ions to diffuse in and out of the neuron, propagating the electrical signal down the axon.
It can result in either hypothermia (too cold) or hyperthermia (too hot) and eventually leads to death
