Why did mendel select garden pea plant for his experiment explain charasteristic of pea
Answers
mendel was in a monestry and that time he observed the garden pea plants in the back lawn... he was interested in its characteristcis and left his monestry to study the features and traits of the garden pea plant... he quickly assumed that the readings of the garden pea plant will be common for all, and he started experimenting his theories with other species (also with humans)
the characteristics of pea plant includes, the shape of the seeds, the colour of the leaves, the colour of the plant, etc
hope that helped

Gregor Mendel chose the pea plants for his experiments because the garden pea is an ideal subject in the study of genetics for the following reasons:
presence of observable traits with contrasting forms
produces many offspring in one cross
short life cycle
ease in manipulating pollination (cross-pollination)
Pea plants had the following characteristics:-
plants were sexually reproducing with bisexual flowers
self-pollination and self-fertilization is possible
the life cycle was completed in one season
hybrids were perfectly fertile
many varieties with well-defined characters were available i.e. presence of seven pairs of contrasting or allelomorphic characters
