Summarize Mendel's experiment. (Mendel's Peas)

Gregor Mendel lived in an Austrian monastery and tended the monastery garden. In 1865, through his observations of the garden pea plants that grew there, Mendel developed three basic principles that-although ignored at the time by his scientific colleagues-would later become the foundation for the new science of genetics. Every pea plant contains both male and female reproductive parts and will normally reproduce through self-pollination.
