Give one reason Mendel chose pea plants for his experiment

The benefits that pea plants have and why Gregor Mendel considered them ideal for his experiments was due to the following:

> They were easy to grow and grew quickly

> Their traits are easy to identify

> They have 7 different traits that can be observed

> There are different types of peas that can be cross-bred or hybridized

> Ultimately convenience due to pea plants being a low maintenance plant that did not occupy much space
