36. Many years ago, a scientist grew pea plants
38. The diagram below represents the cloning of
that produced wrinkled peas. The peas
a carrot plant.
from these plants produced new plants that
also produced wrinkled peas. The scientist
concluded that something in the parent plants
was being transmitted to the next generation.
This discovery is now known as
Compared to each cell of the original carrot

Young birds that have been raised in isolation
from members of their species build nests
characteristic of their species. This suggests
that the nest-building behavior is
