The following is not one of Mendel's hypotheses: Genes are made of DNA. The correct option is B.

Who is Gregor Mendel?

Gregor Mendel was a botanist and scientist, who made a very useful discovery about alleles and genes, and helped in the field of hereditary. He gave three laws about inheritance by working on pea plants.

The three hypotheses that are given by Mendel are:

1. Law of dominance: it states that only dominant characters will be shown in the offspring and recessive will be hidden.

2. Law of segregation: It says that the two alleles for the same trait are not overlapped, but segregated during gamete formation.

3. Law of independent assortment: It states how alleles of different genes get separate s during the formation of gametes.

Thus, the correct option is B. Genes are made of DNA.
