Mendel

Known as the "Father of Genetics", Gregor Mendel performed a series of tests on pea plants. He noticed that two phenotypically identical plants would occasionally produce completely different offspring, and he deduced that genes could be "Dominant or Recessive" from generation to generation.

Neils Bohr

One of the most instrumental atomic theorists, Neils Bohr was the first to acknowledge that electrons orbit the nucleus instead of the commonly accepted "plum pudding" atom model. Made the first 3D model of an atom, but was completely wrong about almost everything associated with atoms.
