Gregor Mendel -

Mendel wrote that genes are passed from parents to their children and can produce the same physical characteristics as the parents.

He found that the plants were either tall or short (dwarf); flower was axial or terminal; purple of white flowers; yellow seed or green seed; round seed or wrinkled seed; green pod or yellow pod; inflated or constricted pod.
