Solution
The correct option is D 7 Seven characters found in garden pea plants were selected by Mendel for his experiment. They were seed shape, seed colour, flower colour, pod shape, pod colour, flower position, and stem height. For all these characters, Mendel selected these characters as he observed a set of two contrasting traits for each of these characters.
