In which of the respect Mendel was lucky in selecting pea plants for his experiments in explaining laws of inheritance:

A.	Pea plants belong to family leguminosae	B.	Pea plants show red coloured flowers
C.	Pea plants have large number of seeds	D.	All the seven characters he selected were located upon different pairs of chromosomes

43.

If F1 generation of a cross between tall and dwarf plants is of tall plants, it indicates the character to be:
