I am experimenting on the Brassica Olercea. Brassica Olercea is the species of plant that include many common foods as cultivars, including cabbage, brocoil, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, collard green. It is native to coastal southern and Western Europe. It's tolerance of salt and lime and it's intolerance of competition from other plants typically restricts its natural occurrence to limestone sea cliffs, like the chalk cliffs on both sides of the English channel. Through a process called mitosis, plants can divide their cells and produce their younger ones. Through linnet squares you can tell how it's pares re genotype the baby plant was. Chromosomes from the parent plant is passed on to the baby plants. It could pass its genetic information through its chromosomes, DNA and genes. It's offspring will look just like it because it's the same chromosomes passed to it. The plants might look different because of their amount of nutrient or because they have the same chromosomes but are arranged differently.
