Gregor Mendel discovered how genes were passed on from parent to offspring through his experiments.
This is known as genetics. It involves the study of how genes are inherited and how they contribute to the physical and behavioral characteristics of organisms. Genetics helps to explain variations among individuals and how traits are passed down through generations.
Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monk and biologist, conducted experiments on pea plants in the 19th century that laid the foundation for the study of genetics. His work established the fundamental principles of inheritance and how traits are passed from parent to offspring.
No, mutations that occur in skin cells are not passed on to organism offspring because they are not present in the germ cells (sperm or egg cells) that are involved in reproduction. Only mutations in the germ cells can be passed on to offspring.
It is genetics.
Genetics was the field that gave the best clues and Mendel's experiments and observations helped.
the child has only one parent so the offspring will look exactly like the parent.
Heredity and genetics deal with the physical characteristics an offspring have passed to it by its ancestors.
Genetics.EDITED: I agree, it's genetics!!!
how many (number of chromosomes are passed from parent to offspring in asexual reproduction
