(N/A) Mendelian experiments involve controlled breeding and the study of multiple generations to observe inheritance patterns. These experiments cannot be performed on humans for the following reasons:
$1$. The generation time in humans is very long,making it difficult to study multiple generations within a reasonable timeframe.
$2$. The number of offspring produced by a human couple is very small,which is insufficient for statistical analysis of Mendelian ratios.
$3$. Controlled breeding or experimental crosses are ethically and socially unacceptable in human populations.
