During Mendel’s investigations into inheritance patterns it was for the first time that:
1. experiments were conducted on garden pea
2. artificial pollination experiments were carried out
3. statistical analysis and mathematical logic were applied to problems in biology
4. all characteristics were passed to the next generation through blending inheritance

Which of the following was not a reason why Drosophila melanogaster were found very suitable for genetic studies?
1. They could be grown on simple synthetic medium in the laboratory. 
2. They complete their life cycle in about two weeks. 
3. A single mating produce a very limited number of progeny flies, generally one. 
4. There was a clear differentiation of the sexes – the male and female flies are easily distinguishable

The chromosomal theory of inheritance suggests that:
1. Genes are located on chromosomes and segregate during meiosis.
2. Genes blend together to form new traits.
3. Alleles are inherited randomly without connection to chromosomes.
4. Traits are passed down without involvement of genetic material.
