The correct Answer is:
To determine which character Mendel did not select in his experiments, we need to analyze the traits he studied. Mendel is known for his work with pea plants and identified several traits. Let's break down the options given: 1. **Plant Height**: Mendel studied this trait, focusing on tall and dwarf plants. 2. **Plant Color**: Mendel did not study this trait in his experiments. 3. **Pod Shape**: Mendel studied pod shape, distinguishing between round and wrinkled pods. 4. **Pod Color**: Mendel studied pod color, specifically green and yellow pods. From this analysis, we can conclude that the character Mendel did not select in his experiments is **Plant Color**. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the traits studied by Mendel**: Mendel studied seven traits in pea plants. 2. **Analyze the given options**: Look at each option to see if it corresponds to the traits Mendel studied. 3. **Eliminate the traits that Mendel did study**: - Plant Height: Studied (tall vs. dwarf) - Pod Shape: Studied (round vs. wrinkled) - Pod Color: Studied (green vs. yellow) - Plant Color: Not studied 4. **Select the correct answer**: The character that Mendel did not select in his experiments is Plant Color.
