B) Self-pollinators like peas are less likely to adapt to highly variable environments because they have less genetic diversity, which comes from cross-pollination.C) Since peas are self-pollinators, different varieties can be planted near each other without the risk of cross-pollination, making it easier to collect pure heirloom seeds.E) Gregor Mendel had to remove the stamens from pea flowers to prevent self-pollination and ensure that his cross-pollination experiments between different pea varieties were controlled and accurate.
