Mendel was curious about what determined variance. He decided to
look at seven different pea plant traits: height, see cour, seed
shape, pod colour, pod shape, flower position and colour. He
used selective breeding to observe these traits over generations,

1 Gregor Mendel was the first person to study genetics.
2 He didn't choose to study the pea plant at random.
3 All of the first generation of pea plants
showed a particular trait.
: One of his conclusions was that the genes changed
when they were passed on.
Mendel's paper, Experiments in Plant Hybridization
was quite popular when first published.
