The first person known to have used probability and mathematics to predict offspring was Gregor Mendel. In the mid-1800s, Mendel studied the inheritance of seven characteristics in pea plants, in which each characteristic had only two forms, e.g., white or purple flowers, round or wrinkled seeds, and tall or short stems. Through these studies, he developed three laws of heredity; the law of segregation, the law of independent assortment, and the law of dominance. The chromosome theory of inheritance, developed in the early 1900s, explains the mechanism underlying the laws of Mendelian inheritance.
