Trait

Each variant for a character is called a trait. In other words, it distinguishes one character from another. For example, in Gregor Mendell's pea experiment he used pea plants that different traits.While some flowers had a whitish color to them, other flowers were purple. Also some pea plants were smaller in height and others larger. Without traits, we would all look the same. Traits are what make us different. Below I have a picture of a cockatiel. Some traits he has are big, round eyes, long feathers above his head, long tail, gray body, yellowish hue to his face, and orange ears. Traits are what make him the adorable little creature he is!
