Explanation: The pea plant Pisum sativum has purple and white flowers. These flowered plants are not just pretty to look at. These plants led Gregor Mendel to unlock the secrets of heredity, beginning the field of genetics. For his efforts, Mendel is widely known as the Father of Genetics, even though he knew nothing of the genetic material, DNA. The laws he developed apply to all sexually reproducing life, and are the basis for beginning to understand many human diseases.
