Solution
Gregor Mendel
He was an Austrian monk who relentlessly worked for 8 years between 1856 and 1863, with the assistance of the humble garden pea as he was
unconvinced with traditional explanations of how traits were passed from one generation to another.
He cross bred crossbred variants to systematically record how traits were passed on from one generation to the next; a mammoth task that involved approximately 28,000 pea plants.
