Solution
The correct option is A Garden pea
Through the selective cross-breeding of common pea plants (Pisum sativum) over many generations, Mendel discovered that certain traits show up in offspring without any blending of parent characteristics. For instance, the pea flowers are either purple or white - intermediate colours do not appear in the offspring of cross pollinated pea plants. Mendel observed seven traits that are easily recognized and apparently only occur in one of two forms.
