Why Mendel can be considered lucky?

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Apart from complete dominance, some organisms show co-dominance and incomplete dominance. If Mendel would have observed co-dominance and incomplete dominance he would be confused and would not be able to deduce the law of dominance. Also, the phenomenon of linkage is seen in some genes where independent assortment is not seen. If Mendel would have observed it he would be confused and would not be able to deduce the law of independent assortment. Thus Mendel was lucky as he didn't encounter these deviations.
