Gregor Mendel used pea plants to study heredity.
Gregor Mendel's experiments with pea plants were significant because they helped establish the principles of inheritance, known as Mendelian genetics. His work showed how specific traits are passed down from parent to offspring in a predictable manner. Mendel's peas were ideal for these studies due to their easily observable traits and ability to self-fertilize.

Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiment allowed him great control, as pea plants can self-pollinate or cross-pollinate, and he was able to pollinate them at will. He studied the characteristics of each plant he would cross-pollinate, perform the pollination and plant the resulting seeds, then study the characteristics of the resulting plants.
The Inheritance of Traits
he did not study animals, he is famous for his experiments with pea plants.
