Solution:

Gregor Mendel, conducted hybridisation experiments on garden peas for 7 years (1856-1863) and proposed the laws of inheritance in living organisms. Mendel selected 14 true-breeding pea plant varieties, as pairs which were similar except for one character with contrasting traits. In a human population there are 3 alleles for ABO Blood group (IA, IB and i). In Drosophila, genes for white eye and yellow body show 1.3 % recombination
