Question

Pure-breeding plants have identical alleles, ensuring that only one trait is inherited.

Pure-breeding plants increase genetic diversity, which makes the inheritance patterns clearer.

Pure-breeding plants are always heterozygous, ensuring dominant traits are expressed.

Pure-breeding plants are only used in genetic experiments to prevent mutations from occurring.
