How did Gregor Mendel's experiments prove Charles Darwin's theory of evolution wrong?

That traits can be inherited directly from a parent -- blending of traits does not always happen.
For example, if one fertilized a green pea with a yellow pea, it was completely possible to get a fully green pea, instead of a greenish-yellow one.

∙ 12y agoIt didn't!! The " marriage " of genetics and evolutionary theory in the 1920's and 1930's supported the theory of evolution by natural selection.
The difference between Daewin and Mendel was the basis of heridity; Mendel had it right and Darwin had it wrong.
PS It is no longer " Charles Darwin's theory of evolution " as it has been a growing theory since 1859.

What well known process was important in developing both mendels and Darwins ideas?
artificial selection
What was the ratio of tall to short plants in the f2 generation of mendels experiments?
3.1
What would you use to assess the reproductive success of a plant?
Mendels Law
When mendels plants self pollinated what did they produce?
Seeds to raise F1 generation
Does your analysis support or refute mendels hypothesis of dominant and recessive inheritance?
You are from Kerr. The answer is on the textbook. The analysis does support the hypothesis because some of the offspring's genotype is heterozygous, as they have two different alleles. They do not have the recessive traits expressed, except in organisms that are homozygous recessive. You're so welcome.

artificial selection

Why did Mendels use pea plants in his experiments?

What was the ratio of tall to short plants in the f2 generation of mendels experiments?
