Gregor Mendel did experiment with pea plants. While many people answered questions such as these in vauge ways such as "his experiment was with peas" well that doesn't help anyone.

Mendel's work was with peas. He crossbreeded many different plants such as tall plants with short plants, green pea plants with yellow pea plants and so on...he did this by spreading the male pollen and the female pollen onto different pea plants. He found that one trait was always...yes always dominant. That means Tall was always dominant while short was always recessive. No one really knows exactly how this worked. This is all the knowledge I have for you guys about Mendel! Hope this helped:)

Gregor Mendel performed an experiment with Pea Plants. It dealt with genetics of pea plants, and breeding to create formulas about heredity. He mixed different types of pea plants like smooth yellow peas and wrinkly green peas, and the peas showed a dominant trait and all turned out to pass on the Smooth, Round, and Yellow color. After his experiments he made three fundamental conclusions.

  • That the inheritance of each trait is determined by "units" or "factors" (now called genes) that are passed on to descendants unchanged.
  • That an individual inherits one such unit from each parent for each trait.
  • That a trait may not show up in an individual, but can still be passed on to the next generation.
