It is said that Mendel proposed that the factor controlling any character is discrete and independent. His proposition was based on the:
 

1. results of the F3 generation of a cross
2. observations that the offspring of a cross made between the plants having two contrasting characters shows only one character without any blending
3. self-pollination of F1 offspring
4. cross-pollination of F1 generation with recessive parent

The most popularly known blood grouping is the ABO grouping. It is named ABO and not ABC, because “O” in it refers to having:

1. No anitgens A and B on RBCs
2. Other antigens besides A and B on RBCs
3. Overdominance of this type on the genes for A and B types
4. One antibody only - either anti-A or anti-B on the RBCs
