Mendel learned from the study of peapods the basis for recessive and dominant gene composition as well as the cell of a plant can contain two different traits but not both traits.

If studying genetics, rats are a popular choice because they breed quickly, having a gestation period lasting under a month. Also, they live longer than mice do, up to four or six years if in good health. They also have a variety of coat, fur, and eye colors that would make basic study of genetics easy by studying offsprings' genes in relation to their parents. I was under the impression that Mendel mainly studied pea plants, though. But that would be my guess why; the reasons for his studying peas are similar to why one would study rats. It's practical.
Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.

That inheritance of traits is particulate. That is the male and the female both contribute discrete genetic information that is not blended in the progeny of sexual reproduction. He called these discrete units " factors " and now we call them genes.Genetics.
mendel experimented with to learn about genetics
Mendel experimented with pea plants to learn about genetics.
mendel is called the father of genetics

discontinuous traits in pea plants
He experimented with pea plants.
he became the father of the genetics; i would hope he would have learned about genetics and how to trace them back.

from studying the generation of fruit flies you can find out that some of them have white eyes, and you can do the genetics table to find out what eye color the baby's will have. It's called the study of genetics, we're learning about it this year!!!!!!
