Gregor Mendel

Who was Gregor Mendel? Mendel was a scientist who gained a substantial amount of fame from his consume of genetics. He studied the pea plant plant and its inheritance of certain traits. 2. What components did he make to science? His study of genetics led to an increase interest in the study of genetics. His biggest contribution to the study of science was his discovery of particulate inheritance, plethoric and recessive traits, genotype and phenotype, and the concept of heterozygous and homozygous. . Which species did he work with? Mendel worked with the simple pea pod plant in his 8 year science experiment 4. show his 4 hypothesisThe first part, or law, states that, Alternative versions of genes account for variations in inherited denotations. The second law states that, For each character trait, like height, color, texture, etc an organism inherits twain genes, one from each parent. The third law declares that, If the two alleles differ, then one, the dominant allele, is fully expressed in the organisms appearance the other, the recessive allele, has no evident effect on the organisms appearance. The fourth law states that, The two genes for each character segregate during gamete production. 5. Explain the concept of self-sufficient assortment The concept of independent assortment states that the emergence of one trait will not ingrain the emergence of another.For example, a pea plants inheritance of the ability to produce colour flowers instead of white ones does not make it more likely that it would also inherit the ability to produce yellow peas in contrast to kibibyte ones. 6. What conditions were overlooked by Mendel? Darwins theory that if the wide variation observable in cultivated plants were caused by the changed conditions and increased nourishment experienced on being brought into cultivation, then this cause of variation must continue to act.
