A. Mendel's investigated pea plants to establish how the structure of DNA determines rules of genetic replication. This enabled the modern boom in genetic engineering.
B. Mendel's studies of pea flowers were the first to establish a link between scent and specific genes. This enabled him to apply the principles of population genetics to the ornamental plant industry.
C. Mendel's studies of peas were the first to establish a link between taste and specific genes. This enabled him to apply the principles of population genetics to the food industry.
D. Mendel's experiments on peas showed how traits were inherited in varying ratios that were different depending on the trait. From this he was able to deduce rules of inheritance.
E. Mendel's studies of peas showed that characteristics were passed on in predictable ratios. This enabled him to establish rules of inheritance.

A,B,C, are too modern for Mendel's time . it is the conclusion that we came after studying Mendels laws
From the given data D is correct but if you observe closely E is a subset of D.
if you think only one answer is correct then the right one would be "D"

I'm going to say E. D looked promising at first, but traits are not transmitted to offspring in different ratios. The process is random, and no trait is more or less likely to be passed on to the next generation

A or D, I'm thinking D, wait it's D for sure
