We are expermenting with a cabbage variety known as ''Copenhagen market''. The species are Brassica Oleracea. I understand that the actual head of cabbage is inside the plant like a flower. The parent plants must have looked about the same but are slightly larger. The parent plants might have been grown in a large garden with a lot of room to grow. There were probably not too many competitors growing in the same environment as the parents. I can predict what will happen with the baby cabbage and what they will look like due to what their grandparents and parents look like. They will acquire all traits from the plant parent whose genes are dominant, so there will be other genes that are dominant over that plant. Genetic information transfers from plant to plant .The new chloroplast can be transferred to the next generation and allow small amounts of cytoplasm and cell organelles  to pass from one cell to another. The baby plants might have a few different features if the other plant that was paired with looks a little different. Even though they are being grown closely together, they were still born from different parents so they might have a few different features depending on who their parents are. The different forms of it came from meiosis or the transferring of genes.
