Mendel's pea plant experiments showed that at least two types of alleles (dominant, and recessive) must exist. Lets say for example that a red plant (for argument's sake, homo. dominant, RR) is crossed with a white plant (homo. recessive, rr). Most schools of thought at the time would have believed the result of this cross to be pink plants. This is true in some cases, but this was not what Mendel discovered.
Instead, Mendel found the offspring to all the red. The reason?? All of the offspring were heterozygous, meaning they each had one dominant allele, and one recessive allele. (Rr) When this occurs, only the dominant form of the trait (in this case red) will be manifested.
When a red plant and a white plant (for example) are crossed and yield a pink plant, the gene is considered to have "incomplete dominance". There is lots more to learn about simple genetics like this, most of which can be learned in a high school Biology course as well as first year university biology. I suggest you check it out if you are still interested in learning more.

Laws of inheritance evolved from ancient common law that was eventually codified in modern state probate codes.
Gregor Johann Mendel - The Father of Genetics
Gregor Mendel
Mendel showed in his experiments that inherited traits are not passed through the blending of inheritance theory. According to the blending of inheritance theory, an offspring's traits are a blend between the traits of the parent organisms. In Mendel's experiments however, he showed that this was not true, and that inheritance is actually based on genes, through the observation of recessive traits. He observed that an offspring could have a trait that neither of the parents had, which is now explained through both of the parents having the recessive gene for the trait, but not showing it because they are heterozygous dominant. There is a 25% chance that the offspring of two heterozygous dominant parents will produce a homozygous recessive offspring that will show the trait that neither of the parents shows.

Mendel studied plant inheritance.
Our new knowledge has helped to explain some of the exceptions to Mendel's laws of inheritance.
Gregor Mendel is the father of genetics.He found the inheritance using pea plants.
Gregor Mendel was a biologist who studied the inheritance of traits. His laws for this inheritance are combined in Mendelian inheritance, which states that some alleles are dominant and as such some traits are dominant.

Gregor Mendel
The things Gregor Mendel called factors are now known to be composed of genes and alleles. Gregor Mendel is referred to as the 'father of genetics'. He is famous for formulating his law of inheritance.
The theory of the blending of genes to form new organisms in reproduction.
