Gregor Mendel was a devoted monk and scientist, he performed a series of elaborate and lengthy test on pea plants (29,000 of them to be exact). Traits present in the children (usually the third generation) reflected the traits found in the parents (the first generation). He discovered a pattern where one of the four children had a complete dominate allele, two a hybrid of the traits, and one completely recessive. he was able to come to the conclusion that traits are inherited and follow a certain set of laws (Mendel's laws). He is said to of form the basis of modern genetics.
