The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Organism Used by Mendel**: Mendel utilized the pea plant (Pisum sativum) for his experiments. This plant was chosen due to its distinct traits and ease of observation. 2. **Understand the Concept of Generations**: The term "generations" refers to the successive breeding of the plants. Mendel worked with plants that had undergone self-pollination for several generations to ensure that the traits were stable and pure. 3. **Define the Terms**: - The first blank should be filled with "pea plant." - The second blank should be filled with "self-pollination" or "autogamy," which refers to the process where pollen from the same flower fertilizes the ovules of that flower. 4. **Final Answer Construction**: - The complete sentence would read: "A pea plant was utilized by Mendel which had undergone self-pollination for several generations." ---
