Answer: He saw that when breeding flowers together some come out looking one way and others looked different.

Step-by-step explanation:

By observing the offspring of a Dihybrid Cross like RrGg x RrGg, Mendel showed that the R and r genes and the G and g genes would segregate independently.

The answer is the presence of one trait did not affect the presence of another, With our modern understanding of genes, chromosomes, and cellular reproduction, we can explain the biological basis of Mendel’s observations and make pretty accurate predictions about the offspring that any given cross (short for crossbreeding) will produce.
