In his study of pea plants, gregor mendel used which method to produce offspring? a. cross-pollination, by using parents that had identical traits b. cross-pollination, by using parents that had different traits c. self-pollination, by using one parent d. random pollination, by using both identical- and different-trait matings

Gregor Mendel used cross pollination to fertilize the pea plants. The parents used in the cross-pollination had different traits, for example one plant was short while the other was tall. The cross-pollination ensured that the transfer of genes from one generation to another can be tracked down easily. He avoided self-pollination by cutting off the anthers from one plant and then adding the pollens from another plant on the stylus of the first plant.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - by cross pollination by using plants that had different traits'.

B
