The Wonders of Biodiversity

Our group has been experimenting on called Collard Green (Champions). This plant is really long and bulky, it grows really quick and can protect its self from too much sun which is really nice. My plant is descended from the Collard breed plant some are also edible and give lots of Vitamins. I can predict what kinds of traits the offspring will have because of meiosis and punnet square with the plants genotypes. They would acquire these traits through meiosis and by crossing over, also by their parents gametes joining together and the way their genes line up during independent assortment. My plants would pass its genetic info onto the next by a process known as meiosis where four new and different haploid daughter cells, which are mated and the genes are passed on to the next generation. Our plants offsprings might look like them or probably not because of process known as crossing-over, where chromatids of homologous chromosomes pair up forming an x and then they are broken into segments. These segments are later then exchanged with the other chromatid of the homologous chromosome. So many different forms of came to be from just one ancestral species because of meiosis and it's creation of four geneticly different haploid daughter cells.
