Mendel concluded that traits are inherited through discrete units called genes, which come in pairs and are passed down from parents to offspring. These genes determine the physical characteristics, or traits, of an organism.
Mendel called the factors that determine traits "genes." He observed that these genes are passed down from parents to offspring and contribute to the inherited characteristics of an organism.
He wanted to determine if traits affected each other, and concluded (based on his observations) that they did not. + To find out if traits could affect the inheritance of other traits. to determine if traits affected each other
They knew traits were inherited, but did not know why.
Gregor Mendel's experiments involved breeding pea plants with different traits (such as tall or short height, yellow or green seeds) and observing how these traits were inherited across generations. He formulated principles of inheritance, which later became known as Mendel's laws of inheritance. Mendel's experiments laid the foundation for the modern field of genetics.

Inherited traits.
Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.

Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monk, is credited with being the first to discover that genes are inherited traits through his experiments with pea plants in the mid-19th century. Mendel's work established the foundation for the science of genetics.
I am pretty sure he wanted to find out how traits are inherited.

Traits are inherited through the genes of parents to their offspring. Traits can be a genetic transfer.
Mendel used controlled breeding experiments with pea plants to study inherited traits. By carefully cross-pollinating plants with specific traits, he was able to observe and track the patterns of inheritance over multiple generations, leading to his discovery of the principles of genetics.
Gregor Mendel's experiments with pea plants helped establish the principles of inheritance, showing that traits are passed down from parents to offspring in predictable patterns. He discovered the concept of dominant and recessive traits, as well as the idea of genetic segregation and independent assortment. Mendel's work laid the foundation for modern genetics and our understanding of how traits are inherited.
