(B) Mendel selected $7$ pairs of true-breeding contrasting characters in pea plants $(Pisum 	ext{ } sativum)$ for his hybridization experiments. These characters are summarized in the table below:$1$. Character: Seed shape (Dominant: Round,Recessive: Wrinkled)$2$. Character: Seed colour (Dominant: Yellow,Recessive: Green)$3$. Character: Flower colour (Dominant: Violet,Recessive: White)$4$. Character: Pod shape (Dominant: Inflated,Recessive: Constricted)$5$. Character: Pod colour (Dominant: Green,Recessive: Yellow)$6$. Character: Flower position (Dominant: Axial,Recessive: Terminal)$7$. Character: Stem height (Dominant: Tall,Recessive: Dwarf)

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$a$. Allele	$i$. Two alleles of a gene are identical
$b$. Genotype	$ii$. An individual having two different alleles of a gene
$c$. Homozygous	$iii$. Genetic constitution of an organism
$d$. Heterozygous	$iv$. Alternative forms of a gene
