Explanation:

Gregor Mendel chose pea plants for his experiments because they reproduce sexually, allowing for controlled cross - pollination. This characteristic was crucial for studying inheritance patterns. Pea plants have multiple traits (not just one), they produce flowers which are relevant for sexual reproduction but the key reason related to the options is sexual reproduction. Also, pea plants do not grow very slowly.

They reproduce sexually.
