The plant we are experimenting with is Brassica Oleracea. It is a green plant that you can eat. It is a cultivated wild cabbage. 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.

This is wild cabbage. Many different forms came from this because of crossing over. Genes randomized.
