What was Mendel's results to his first experiment?
He found out that some traits in one generation (parents) was not present in the next generation (offspring).
The trait observed in the first generation when parents that have different traits are bred?
A dominant trait.
Which two important factors was Darwin unable to explain without an understanding of heredity?
First, he had no idea how heritable traits pass from one generation to the next. Second, although variation in heritable traits was central to Darwin's theory, he had no idea how that variation appeared.
What is generation is the offspring of the P or parental generation?
The offspring of the Parental generation are termed the F1 or First filial generation.
What is the generation of the offspring of a cross between parents that are pure for a given trait?
The first generation cross, known as F1 (filial 1), for homozygous (purebred) parents will be heterozygous - have one allele of each of their parents' traits. For example, the cross BB X bb would result in an F1 genotype of Bb.
When a first generation plant self pollinates what is the ratio of dominate to recessive traits in the second generation plants?
1:3

When plants that are true breeding for different traits of a characteristic are crossed the offspring are called?
first-generation plants
The trait observed in the first generation when parents that have different traits are bred?
A dominant trait.
Who was one of the first scientist to take on the theory of spontaneous generation using meat and maggots?
Francesco Redi
What was Gregor Mendel the first to describe?
Gregor mendel was the first to discover genetics. he was the first to know that genes are not only passed through parent and offspring, but through other living things too, such as pea plant. Alexis

What did mendel conclude after his stem height pea plant experiment?
Mendel's experiment showed that with other traits it showed a similar pattern and also that it resulted that this crossed the first generation. The dwarf height traits had seemed to disappear. He then let the first generation plants self pollinate.
How do scientist use cladograms?
To show evolutionary relationships based on traits
