Solution

The correct option is B 2

Mendel selected 14 true breeding pea plant varieties, as pairs which were similar except for one character with contrasting traits. In this he selected height of the plant, flower colour and position, pod shape and colour, seed shape and colour.

So, the correct option is ‘2’.
