The plant we are experimenting with is Brassica Oleracea. It is a green plant that you can eat. It is a cultivated kale plant. You could look at the genes of the parent cells and create an idea of what it's offspring would look like. Plants get these traits by the process of meiosis and eventually gamete formation. This gamete cell will give the plant its traits. The next generation will look similar to the parent but not exact. These plants grown closely together look different because of their genes. Their genes are different because of selective breeding. Selective breeding is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together. This is our brassic oleracea kale plant.
