Mendel was able to attribute the variation observed in the offspring of his experiment to the controlled fertilization process.
Mendel was able to control pollination and, thus, the fertilization process in the pea plants used for his experiment.
Mendel was able to effectively predict the outcome with self-pollination or cross-pollination with different results coming from each. Thus, he logically concluded that the variation observed in the offspring of his crosses is due to the fact that he controlled the fertilization process.

Phylum is a principal taxonomic category that is ranked below the kingdom and above the class. If two organisms are in the same phylum, this means that they are also in the same kingdom. Each phylum is composed of one or more classes.
Leachate
In the MSW (municipal solid waste) landfill, contaminated water from wastes is known as leachate. Leachate is the contaminated liquid (water) produced when percolating liquid, especially rainwater drains through wastes that are placed in a landfill. When the liquid enters wastes, it separates or filters out constituents from the wastes which result in the formation of leachate.
