Explanation:

A. After years of research, Mendel identified the genes for flower colors.  False. During Mendel's research, genes were not yet discovered.

B. Mendel bred various dog breeds to discover the science of genetics.  False. Mendel worked with pea plants, not dogs.

C. Mendel hypothesized that the traits of pea plant offspring are inherited.  True. Mendel uncovered the main principles of the inheritance of simple traits.

Answer:

It is possible to compare the expression of homologous genes in the brain of <em>D. melanoganster</em> and humans, because the expression levels of conserved genes may be associated with the evolution of cognitive features such as complex learning and memory.  

Explanation:

Model organisms can be used to understand the patterns and processes that affect human evolution. <em>Drosophila melanogaster </em>is a model organism that has been used to study expression patterns of conserved genes in the course of evolution. This model organism has also been used to develop genetic mutant lines in order to examine the role of genes evolutionarily conserved in animals, including those involved in neurocognitive development.

In genetic research, an experiment as the above described is framed in a research field named 'Behavioral Genetics', which is a discipline that studies how evolutionarily conserved gene networks may be associated with neurocognitive tasks during brain evolution.
