Fast Plants Reflection

Posted by Naji Henderson in Biochemistry 2 Honors on

For my F2 generation fast plants the seeds didn't grow but I predicted that they would have green stem and yellow leaves. Since we weren't able to produce F2 plants we observed other groups F2. Other groups F2 plants grew faster than our F1 generation plants. I'm not sure what factors hindered our F2 plants ability to thrive but for our F1 I think amount of water, light, and proximity to other plants could've hindered their ability to thrive. 

Genetics give from their parents affects an organism's phenotype. They get half from one parent and from the other and some features can be expressed while others are not some might mix a create something that's a blend of both. The environment can affect an organism's phenotype by causing some part of their physical appearance to adapt to it's surroundings. Genetics is a greater indicator of what an organism's phenotype will be.
