"Thomas Hunt Morgan continued the genetic research of Gregor Mendel, but Morgan used fruit flies."

Reason: Mendel's hypothesis of particulate inheritance motivated further tests of heredity. Morgan adopted Drosophila as a new experimental system and developed breeding, mutation screening, and chromosome-mapping methods to test and extend Mendel's ideas — a clear example of a hypothesis driving new experimental methods.
