The number of correct statements from the given statements is:
I: Gregor Mendel, conducted hybridisation experiments on garden peas for seven years (1856-1863) and proposed the laws of inheritance in living organisms.
II: During Mendel’s investigations into inheritance patterns it was for the first time that statistical analysis and mathematical logic were applied to problems in biology.
III: His experiments had a large sampling size, which gave greater credibility to the data that he collected.
IV: Mendel investigated characters in the garden pea plant that were manifested as two opposing traits.
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4

In Mendelian Inheritance:
I: Some alleles are dominant while others are recessive; an organism with at least one dominant allele will display the effect of the dominant allele.
II: During gamete formation, the alleles for each gene segregate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.
III: Genes of different traits can segregate independently during the formation of gametes.
1. Only I and II are correct
2. Only I and III are correct
3. Only II and III are correct
4. I, II and III are correct
