- Roscroot (Sedum integrifohum) is an herbaccous plant species that is found on limestone cliffs in southeastern Minnesota and westem New York. and on rocks slopes at high elevations (3,000 m. or - 10.000 At) in Colorado. In Minnesota and New York. the plants are sprawling and have -drooping leaves, whereas in Colorado the plants are erect and hold their caves upright. a. Briefly describe a study that vou could do in order to determine if the differences in plant morphology observed in these populations of roscroot are genetically based or due to environmental factors and describe the results that would allow vou to conclude that it is heritable.
